Caiden turns 5!!! Wow, he is getting so big! His birthday is on the 11th (Veteran's Day). He was so sad that he didn't get to go to preschool on his birthday. I told him someday he will be very thankful that he never has to go to school on his birthday! The weekend before we had a birthday party for him at the house and invited some of his close buddies....the Wiseman and Christensen boys, his friend Jackson, and cousin Keenen....
From left to right: Gage, Jared, Jackson, Ian, Caiden and Keenen....Why is Caiden in his Spiderman costume?? Not sure. He's been really into costumes lately (still fresh in his mind from Halloween, I guess) and it's become an almost daily thing that he decides to be somebody other than "Caiden" for the day....Don't get me started on his imagination....
Even Aunt Kimmy was there...Caiden was very excited to have her here!!
The main interests this year was Transformers and Ninja Turtles. His friends and family pulled through with some great gifts....
This is Caiden and his friends opening the gift from daddy....a giant Jeep Wrangler remote control car....
.....another transformer....
....and Ninja Turtle weapon....
Caiden is also a big fan of Kung Fu Panda....Not only does he have a backpack and lunchbox, but now he has a matching shirt! And yes, he wore it all the very next day to preschool...
....and the movie too, of course!....
....Then we had a Transformer pinata for everyone. All the boys had fun swinging at it and trying to break it open....although, the adults got a little stressed at the swinging bat and little kids nearly getting in the way...I guess I didn't quite think that through very well, but happy to report there were no injuries!....
Even the littlest kids got to swing at the pinata...Here is Case taking a hit...
.....and Paige too...(the bat is upside down Paige! Oh well!)....
....Ian takes a hit!....
....and Gage too....
Eventually it busts open and everyone makes a mad dash for the candy....We were just trying to get the bat out of the middle of it all....Not everyone understood to stop swinging when the candy fell out....

THE BIGGEST LOSER. Love that show! I wouldn't talk like that about someone I really know, just someone I really know through tv. :) Kim
I can't believe our babies are already 5! It has gone by so fast. The boys loved looking at his birthday party pictures. Malcolm especially loved the Donatello weapon. They love Ninja Turtles too.
Love the story about Caiden being in character all day long and you having to be as well. Too funny!
