My Baby Boy is 4 Today!

Today was Kalebs birthday and to say the least the festivities got off with a miserable start. Oh, the pain of being expected to wear pants...even on your birthday. I mean if you can't go naked on your birthday, what can you do? I wanted to threaten taking away his birthday if he didn't stop throwing this massive, worlds gonna end, tantrum. But then that would mean he would have to stay 3 for a whole other year and I just don't think I could take that.

So the majority of our morning (and usually all our mornings) looked a lot this...

And this....
And still,.. lots more of this...
I finally got him to calm down after a quick bribe of deep fried, fatty goodness from Burger King. So I packed up all the Yahoo's (husband not included) and met up with my friend Amy for a quick impromptu fast food outing. Soon after Kaleb's day started looking not so bad. Food (and a good anti-depressant) can make anything better.

Later that day I told him he could help me make his birthday cake (as motivation to actually make him one). He did manage to work in one or two smiles during the process.

Then it was off to Chuckee Cheese...

And life was good...

Oh, so good!
