My baby boy turned 4 on Saturday! He is such a big boy now, but he still has his "baby" ways. This pose was his idea :) We had his party at the Fire Station right by our house. Nathan was so excited about meeting the firemen! I thought we could have a fire truck cake and plates/napkins since it was at the fire station, but Nathan wanted Transformers...I think the days of me picking out his things (like cake and Halloween costume) are over. Auntie Carrie and Uncle Chris came for the party which made Nathan and Charlotte really happy!
On the day of the party, Nathan was so excited, and he was acting like such a big boy. He told us he would use his nice manners and tell the firemen thank you for letting him have his party there. And he did! The firemen had a lesson for the kids where they talked about fire safety, and they put their fire gear on for the kids so that they would understand that even though they look different in the gear, and maybe a little scary, they are still the same guys. So don't be afraid of them if they have to come to your house. Fire Fighter Jason and Fire Fighter Larry asked the kids lots of questions, which a lot of them knew the answers to! One funny thing that Nathan said was when they asked the kids what they call if there is an emergency. Blake shouted out 911, and we all clapped for him. Then Nathan said, "Except I don't have a real phone to use, just my pretend one." It was so cute!
The kids (with Nathan as the leader) also got to tour the station and also the fire truck. I think that was their favorite part. And Nathan loved it when they turned on the lights and siren...you can see that all of the kids are covering their ears for that part :)
After our fire station party, we went home to open presents. Nathan got so many wonderful things and was so happy to play with his new toys. Later on that evening, Mama and Papa and Grandmother came over for swimming, more presents, and a taco dinner. We had such a great time!
Happy birthday to the best boy in the world!
