Christian's 4th Birthday!

What a handsome guy, if I do say so myself.

This year, Christian was lucky enough to have two special days. Saturday (Aug 16th) we celebrated so that Daddy could be with us. Christian wanted to start the day feeding the ducks on a little bridge along our neighborhood bike path. After feeding the ducks we went to the new 3D animated movie, Fly Me to the Moon. We haven't taken the boys to the movie theater for over a year, so that was a special treat.

When we got home, we got to work on Christian's spiderman cake. It turned out really cool (I thought, anyway) until I had Christian tip it up, to take a picture with it. Anyway, by the time I got him to smile, and took the picture I realized the frosting on the cake was sliding downward. Aaaaaaaaaahhh! All my hard work...right? Well, since I had a few extra spiderman cake decorations, I let Christian finish decorating his cake, however he wanted. We were able to slide most of the frosting back into place...which didn't really matter, because Christian proceeded to cover it all up anyway. We had a blast doing it together.

All the kids loved his new Batman mask, especially Kalaya.

Today, we had fun celebrating a little more. Happy meals for lunch and presents from the rest of the family, and friends. He got a pair of some really cool super soaker water guns, and well, that's how we spent the rest of his birthday. Out on the front lawn with some neighbor friends enjoying cupcakes and getting soaked. It was great!

Happy Birthday Christian! We love you!
