It feels like we were celebrating Jalen's 4th birthday for over a week. On May 7th, we had a joint birthday party for Jalen and Trenton. This is the first year I completely outsourced the birthday party and it was the best thing ever! We had the party at a bouncy house called Kidz Bounce and they basically took care of everything. They even provided place settings and balloon bouquets at each table. We had about 20 kids at the party and they all had a fantastic time. Jalen was very happy to have quite a few of his preschool friends at the party.
Then on his birthday, we had a play date at our house with his two best friends, Trenton and Katelyn. The kids had a screamin' good time, literally. I don't know what it was but the kids were constantly screaming in excitement while playing. Afterwards, we went to the new Disney Store at Bellevue Square and let him build his own custom Disney Cars character. He chose a custom Mater. Then we went to Cheesecake Factory for dinner where he enjoyed a birthday sundae.
On Monday, the day after his birthday, I brought some ice cream sandwiches as treats for his friends at preschool. Jalen got a birthday crown and his friends sang happy birthday to him. Phew... What a lucky kid.
Today, I took him to his 4th birthday checkup. Jalen has grown like a champ. He is 40lb 6oz (50-75%) and 42" (90-95%). Yes, I'm a proud mommy and I'd like to take credit for his excellent growth rate. :)
