Chase is 4!!! Wow. Can't believe it's already been that long. He continues to grow into such a great little guy. He wanted to have a Curious George (CG) party. He watches CG every morning during breakfast and tries to remember some of his curious natures so he can try them on mom, but he turns out to be so sweet he doesn't usually get into too much trouble!
Chase wanted to make his own cake and we decided on a shaped, chocolate banana cake. We started yesterday day and he helped to make the cake. He watched with great anticipation of licking the beater. Why is that so much fun?
OH....that's why it's fun....it's messy and delicious!
Chase woke during the middle of the night and came to sleep with me. I think he came in just beofre 3:00 a.m. and he was born at 3:10. SO...I let him stay with me and savored that sweet memory of when he was born and just held him in my arms. We started the day with a yogurt quiche with blueberries - complete with candles and all. He loved it.
For lunch we had macaroni and cheese and the kids just played around the house while we got ready for the party. We had lots of balloons for decorations. I also printed out lots of coloring sheets and worksheets from the CG website and thad those sitting around for people to do. The kids made CG masks and played an ABC matching game.
It was then time for presents! And oh did he get some nice presents. All of the grandparents were present but we were missing a couple family members due to illness. We really missed you guys and hope that the little one is getting nursed back to health quite quickly.
Here is our banana cake. It turned out so well, if I may say so myself! Before our cake and homemade ice cream, we had a meal with lasagna, chicken alfredo pasta, salad and bread. It was delicious!
We had a lot of batter with the cake so we also made a small banana cake for Chase to eat. He was counting the candles as he put them in his cake.
Chase got so many neat toys. We opened his lego sets and they were a huge hit. Let the creative juices flow!
HAPPY #4 CHASE!!!!! We love you.
