Today we celebrated our Creighton's 4th birthday!
He has been planning his birthday for months now and has been helping with all of the details. In fact, yesterday he wanted to help make the cake. I said, "No, I will make the cake- this is my present to you." He said, "Mom, cakes are not presents. They are for looking at and eating."
After much deliberation he finally chose a Disney Planes theme for his party!
This year we threw Creighton a big party with lots of family and friends. We were so happy that so many were able to join us for our big guy's special day. We had our party at our church, due to the size of our get-together, and ate pizza, had lots of fun with a pinata, ate cake and ice cream, and opened presents-spoiled boy!!
A really fun present Creighton received was from Big Daddy. Big Daddy wanted to get Creighton a bike so they went to the store and he let Creighton pick out what he wanted-a Spiderman bike!
Now I was a bit skeptical... I have not been able to teach Creighton to pedal in the last 2 years but Big Daddy was sure that he could do it! They spent an afternoon outdoors with no luck. But at the party, with an audience, Creighton took off without any problems!
I am happy, and relieved, to announce that our 4 year old Creighton is now a bike rider! And not just any bike, but a Spiderman bike-rider!
Creighton's family and friends know what he likes, he got quite the haul of things he adores. He will be spending plenty of time watching Toy Story 2 and seasons 2 of Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers and Darkwing Duck (he likes to sing the theme songs), playing with cars/trucks/planes and Legos, reading books, blowing bubbles, playing with balls and playing "Who Shook Hook?" and "I SPY".
He will also be sleeping comfy and cozy in new Disney Planes bedding while wearing new pajamas (after taking a bath with new bath toys and bath markers). During the day he will be styling in new clothes, he is set up with golf clubs and balls (like daddy) and will also be rootin' on his favorite team (says daddy) with his Oregon Ducks hat.
When all was said and done he had a really fabulous day, it was all he had hoped for and more!
It was a joy to celebrate 4 years of Creighton with him today!
