Party Day

We celebrated Jacob's 4th birthday today with a fun party with all of his friends. We had a tough time deciding what to do for his party this year. We would have liked to have it at home (because it is less expensive!) but with his birthday being in January we never know what the weather will be like and couldn't count on being able to use the yard and we didn't think the majority of the kids were old enough to get playing party games. So after some online research we found a really cool gym that we decided would be great. We had showed Jacob pictures of the gym and he was so excited. We even made a paper chain to count down the days until party day. So this morning he was thrilled that we finally got to go. There was so much to do there and he had a blast running around with all of his friends. He did some flips into the foam pit (and daddy did some flips too!) and went on a zipline across the gym! It was such a great experience!

After the party we headed home and he wanted to get out some of his presents already. He got a scooter from Grammy so we put that together and he went for a ride on that, then he wanted to play with his new play doh toy. He still has lots of new toys to play with and I'm sure he will be into them first thing in the morning, but tonight he was out quickly.

I can't believe he is almost 4. Four just seems so much older! So I will enjoy my 3 year old for a few more days before he is officially four.
