April Birthday

For many months Zeke has been asking about his birthday and we have talked about how his birthday is in April. And then April finally got here, and he had to wait until the last few days of the month! But it was worth waiting for, and we celebrated several days in a row. 

He got to take treats to preschool, and he chose cupcakes. 

At preschool, he got a birthday crown and a whistle.

The next day, a package arrived in the mail from Draper and Carrie. He can read his name, so it was fun when he opened the mailbox, pulled out the package, and said 'This is for me!'. 

Turtle cake. Aaron did the building and we frosted it together. 

We had a fun little party on Zeke's birthday, with cake and ice cream and presents. He got train tickets from mom and dad and Nora.

Zeke also got a fun truck pulling a trailer with an ATV on it. While Zeke opened more presents, Nora and Brielle were pushing the buttons on the truck and jamming out to the music it plays.

Singing happy birthday and blowing out the candles. He's been looking forward to this for a long time!

After the party we headed to the park to fly Zeke's new Spiderman kite. The kite goes up and stays up so easily, and Zeke loved that he could fly his kite and play in the dirt at the same time.

Nora got a turn to fly too.

The day was nice but the wind was cold, so after a while we headed home to warm up with quesadillas and watch Inspector Gadget on Hulu. I had a great day, and Zeke says he did too :)
