Four-years-old!
We are celebrating Jaden’s birthday today with a small family party and Monday we are getting together with friends for a fun evening of play and party.
It’s hard to believe it’s been nearly four years since Jaden was born, relieving me of the miserable pregnancy that preceded his birth. The last four years have been filled with learning and adventure. He holds conversation so well, capable of speaking for hours while engaged. Jaden stands 41″ tall and weighs about 40 pounds.
Jaden is absolutely amazing in his discoveries about life and learning. He knows his alphabet, understands/comprehends spelling and counts well into his 20’s and is aching to count to 100! We play many number and letter games and are working hard on learning how to read and write.
Happy Birthday to my Big Boy!
Pictures follow…
CAKE!!!!!! I want cake!
Silly Face Time!
Just Hangin’
Who Cares about the grass, I want to know what’s inside!
Ben 10 started the party…
Someone said cake? I’m having too much fun with the toys now!!
Okay, I’m happy, lets have cake!
Jaden didn’t even wait for everyone to sing happy birthday before blowing out the candles and requesting a “HUGE” piece of cake! He got exactly that and had a thoroughly wonderful time.
He walked away with five new books, various Ben 10 figures and a Ben 10 Alien Voice Changer. He’s in Ben 10 heaven!

YAY! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Jaden! Four Year Olds are fabulous. My youngest turned for early in April. He’s a fan of books too but loved his train sets more. We have a WHOLE toybox just for his train tracks and his train carriages and engines are overflowing his Thomas the Tank carrier box.
Congratulations on so many happy times with Jaden and here is to many, many more for all the years to come.

Thank you Rebecca! He’s a riot some days and a handful others. I’m looking forward to the year progressing and watching Jaden grow in so many ways!!
