Jake is 4!

My Jake is 4!!  How does this keep happening?!  My babies are getting so grown up!  Sigh.  Jake is definitely a unique kid - people are always telling me that he is just SO HAPPY.  He is a happy boy, for sure - he is usually smiling and being goofy.  He has a great sense of humor and LOVES "boy" stuff.... but with a healthy appreciate of girl stuff too - haha - that's what having 3 sisters will do for you!  We LOVE our Jakey!!

Jake shares his birthday month with his Grandpa Dangerfield and his cute little cousin Caroline.  We celebrated all the March birthdays at Aunt Emily's house.  She made super fun cupcakes and Jake was later spoiled by gifts from his family...

The night before his birthday we got his cupcakes ready and gifts wrapped and on display.  He was so excited on his birthday morning to see the kitchen table!

Jake's birthday breakfast request- "waffles with chocolate sauce AND strawberry sauce!"  Ben made delicious homemade chocolate and strawberry sauce - it was so so so so good.  :)  Is this breakfast or dessert?

Presents!  Grandma and Grandpa Szymanski sent some money for his birthday and we used it to get him this cool explorer set...

Jake is an astronaut!!

Later that morning we met some friends at the park and celebrated Jake's b-day with a robot theme...

We ate cupcakes and decorated juice boxes like robots...

At the end of the party, we let the balloons fly up in the air!

Jake picked out a birthday cake at Costco... he insisted on cheese cake... do you think we ate enough goodies on his birthday?

Happy 4th Birthday big Jake man!!
