Well it happened, as much as I didn’t want it to happen it did…my baby turned 4!!! I have had a really hard time with this birthday. The other night I literally started crying to Jarrod because all I can think about is how after this year he’s only got one year of preschool left and then it’s off to kindergarten which means…every day, all day (well til 3:30), school buses (still not sure about that one), homework, etc… Once they start kindergarten there’s no turning back. One thing this has made me realize is that these days of having him home with me, even when it’s the hardest of hard days, they won’t be here much longer and I’m going to miss them so much!!
Anyway, yesterday Bo was a VERY popular little man…we, or should I say he had phone calls, emails, text messages from friends and family, “real mail” which he loves getting, presents, you name it! He had such a fun day!!! We started yesterday morning off with a birthday breakfast which consisted of sprinkle pancakes topped with syrup and whip cream!!! When he came downstairs we had decorations and his gifts all ready for him.
For the past few weeks I have been racking my brain about what to get him. We just had Christmas and he just had a birthday party…the kid doesn’t need anything else, but we had to do something. Well, ever since Christmas his favorite movie has been Finding Nemo, I recorded it during the holidays and we have watched it every single day during quiet time!!! He loves it and he’s been talking about wanting a fish. For as long as I can remember anytime we have ever walked into Petsmart he would immediately run to see the fish. So after a lot of talking to daddy about it we decided to get our little man a fish. We got him a red betta fish and he LOVES it, he even named it Bo Fish! He is constantly checking on it, talking to it, etc… As if we needed to add something to my list of things to take care of, but that’s what mamas do when it’s for their babies!! Jarrod had to leave this morning to go out of town for work and Bo wanted him to “hug” Bo the fish goodbye! He also got a new Cars wii game and the actual Finding Nemo dvd, so mommy doesn’t have to fast forward through commercials anymore!!
Saturday afternoon we had another birthday party for our friends James and after that we headed out to dinner for pizza and back home for cake. He had such a fun birthday and Jarrod and I, absolutely loved getting to just spend the day with our little man playing games, watching movies, and having fun. I would say this birthday was definitely a success, we have one very happy little boy!
Meet Bo the Fish!
Little Miss had her first taste of pancake! Mmmm!
We saw a lot of this all day!
