Wesley's Birthday


Wesley was really excited to make his birthday cake. He kept telling me we needed to hurry and make it before his friends came over. Sad!! Poor kid. We had talked about doing a chocolate party and having a few friends (boys only, as requested by Wesley) come over. But, then things changed when mom came down with the 9 month flu. So, I told him we'd have a party with dad when he got home and luckily he was okay with that.

We had chocolate cake, chocolate frosting, and chocolate candy bars on top.

Funny thing is, Wesley didn't care to much about eating the cake. He likes the frosting and was excited for us to sing happy birthday so he could blow out his candles. The cake is still sitting on the counter with one slice taken out of it, which was for Aubrey and she didn't even eat it.

Being that we ran out of time, between me not feeling well and Brady working major overtime to take care of things at work AND home, we opted to just take Wesley to the store and let him pick out his own gift. We finally walked out of the store with this cool set. It is a castle with knights and they have swords and knives and shields and all kinds of fun stuff.

Dad helping Wesley put things together. He has had a lot of fun with it.

I love Wesleys castle and nights set. That looks like so much fun. All the chocolate looks very yummy too for sure. That is so cute that he helped make his own cake.

Sounds like the perfect birthday for a 4 year old...we took kadence to pick out her bike for her 4th birthday but she decided instead to just get a mermaid barbie for the bathtub. Great way to save money with that kid! happy birthday to Wes, Kadence got him a great card, we'll get it in the mail tomorrow!
