March 12th - Caleb's birthday. This is the Bakugan (back-you-gone) card Joshua made for Caleb.
We gave Caleb a t-shirt, a movie, and Star Wars binoculoars for his birthday.
This is the cake Caleb requested for his "friend" birthday party. It is a "Jello Poke Cake". First I baked two round white cakes. After they cooled, the boys poked holes all over the cake and we poured strawberry jello all over both cakes. After the jello set overnight, I spread strawberry jam in between the layers, stacked them, iced the cake, and decorated it with mini oreos as per my son's request. What an imagination! It was a very delicious cake.
Sunday, March 14 - a birthday party with both sets of grandparents for Natalee and Caleb. In a few years, there will ANOTHER birthday party added to this crazy week! (By that, I mean when Natalee is school-age and she will have her friend party in addition to the family party.) The boys requested a sparkler candle - Natalee was a little afraid of it, and you can see that Caleb was trying to sneak a touch in there. Natalee had cupcakes with pink icing topped with a giant gummy strawberry.
Then it was Caleb's turn. As Grandma Voth pointed out, this is his last year in the single digits. I bought him the number "9" candle for his cookie pizza, which was decorated with mini eggs and Reece's pieces. Yummy!
Presents! A Dora backpack for Natalee...
Caleb carefully reading his birthday cards.
And Natalee got a PINK bike as well as the pink outfit she is wearing. She was quite thrilled with her presents!
These days, Wyatt is trying to climb into everything - any bucket that he can fit into. The other day, he was trying to sit in a small frying pan. Not that easy a fit for such a big boy. Here he is in Natalee's doll carriage - he really likes it, even though it is not a very safe place for him.
