Well....my baby boy is 4!

For his 4th birthday, Jake had his first ever friend party.  To say he was excited would be an understatement.  After watching his big sis have a few years of friend parties, he could not wait to have a friend party of his own.  So, by his choice, he got to hang out with two of his best buds, Jesse & Caleb, and they went to the Kroc Center for fun at the water park, then out to dinner to Jake's favorite local bite, Taco Del Mar, and then home for a "super cool" transformer cake, presents and a little play time with this pals.  They all seemed to have a great time......even dad did too.  :-) 


WHOA!  Cool cake.

Enjoying the good stuff together.


How lucky to have such a fun day with great friends!

And in honor of his 4th birthday, I thought I'd end this post with 4 pictures of my boy:




 In this picture, he was just 4 days old.  Who knew in just 4 short years, he would turn into.....

....the wild and fun little Jakey we know......

...who plays so hard, that he crashes hard.....

....and is such a loving brother in a family full of ladies.

Jake buddy - you are the best son in the wholly wide world.  We love you!!!!!!

Looks like Jake got some good time in with his boys. He is adorable. Just like the rest of your family. :) Wish him a happy birthday from his friends he's never met in Wisconsin.

I like the idea of waiting to do friend parties until 4! I think theres so much pressure on us as moms to start that young and I just don't see the point of a friend part at 1 or 2!

Love seeing the twins in their bumbos! =) I can tell you are busy, but lovin' it! ;)
