Caden's Birthday started the weekend before with an Edible Arrangement sent from Dundore and Poobah! The kids always look forward to this fruit bouquet on their birthdays and is usually polished off in one sitting, minus of course the honeydew... I'm not sure why that fruit is so unpopular, I don't mind it.
Caden woke up the morning of his birthday bright and early wanting to open presents! Even though the kids all had the opportunity to sleep in because I took the day off to make Caden and Cora's birthday cakes for their party. Rob had to go to work though, but we let him open a couple to start the day off on a cheery note. It definitely is more fun (for me!) to have the kids birthdays fall on a weekend. Although Caden loved getting all the birthday rituals at school.
Last present before getting ready for school...
Yay! he's not all grown up yet! Cole saw the box under the paper and shouted out what it was, Caden was mad because Cole "told him" (announced for him) what the present was before Caden could say it... gotta love brothers!
Inspecting...
Big smile from the birthday boy!
A new bey stadium (it is actually cast off in the background because it is smaller and Cole kept ripping a "stadium out". It is amazing how much the kids love these crazy tops.
Back from school! and ready to keep opening his gifts! I kind of like that as they get older their presents get smaller! Some day our house might not look like a giant daycare center.
Caden chose spaghetti and meatballs for his birthday dinner, one of his all-time favorite meals... although he decided not to have sauce.
Caden loves his Dad! I am definitely not his favorite :(
Cole even approved of Caden's dinner choice.
Made this cheesy garlic bread from pinterest... it was amazing.
I gave Caden reign over my Dessert board on Pinterest and this was the cake he chose, a peanut butter cup brownie torte.. it was pretty tasty.. especially after the ganache was drizzled on!
Rob lights birthday candles in our house with the creme brulee torch (we've never actually even made creme brulee!)
Here he is! Proud as a peacock (Still haven't ditched that filter!)
Mmmm delectable!
The other kids wanted to be in the birthday boys picture.. I couldn't argue.
Happy Birthday to our Oldest Baby Boy!
