We cannot believe that our little boy is 4 years old now! What a blessing he has been in our lives. He has been through a lot in his 4 short years of life - 3 very long hospital stays for one. We are so very thankful for him every day.
Also, some quick stats at 4 years old, he is wearing size 5 clothes, weighs in at 46 lbs and is about 44 inches tall.
Grammie came over a day early to hang out with us and brought PRESENTS. Caden loves presents. Look at the expressions on his face when he is opening them...
Then, what does every 4 year old need for their birthday??? A pony party! I had heard about this great farm called The Painted Pony. They had all kinds of animals and then actually let the kids paint the pony!
First up, pony rides!
Here are our friends Sarah, Brendan, Ethan, and cousin Wade riding the ponies!
Do you think he liked his pony party?
We had three ponies and the birthday boy got to ride all 3!
There were swings and a dirt pit/sand pile for the kids to play in.
They had baby goats, chickens, ducks, pigs, donkeys, cows, oh my!
Feeding the cow...
Then, we got to paint Charlie the horse! This animal amazingly just stood there calmly while all of the kids put their handprints on him.
Family picture with Charlie! Mommy looks huge at almost 9 months pregnant!
Then, onto the hayride. Daddy went...mommy did not. Didn't need all that jostling around...we were glad that Ensley decided not to share her brother's birthday.
Happy Birthday, Caden!
And the aftermath...
He insisted on holding some of his presents. Good times were had by all! Great memories for our little boy. We love you Caden and hope you enjoyed your pony party!
