I can not believe he is FOUR! When did this happen. I look at Cole all day and feel like I am looking at Tate...it seems like days ago. We try to make Tate's birthday as special and separate as can be from Christmas which is four days before his birthday. This year we decided to hold off on a big friends birthday party and just had a low-key birthday dinner the Sunday before with family and invited one of his best buddies Jackson and family. He loved it and we all had a great time!
I was pretty excited about this awesome cake I made...
Tate is still so honest and open. He always tells me right after he does something naughty. The other day he marched into my bathroom and said, "mom, I took a huge poop and I clogged the toilet, but don't worry, I reached in and pulled out all the poop and toilet paper and put it in the sink"...and he did. Anyway, I was upstairs getting ready and he walked in and declared, "mom I tasted the cake and it is delicious". I ran downstairs to see (thinking maybe he put his finger in the frosting) but nope...just leaned in and took a few bites.
On December 20th, his actual birthday, we had a nice family dinner just the four of us and left over cake and ice cream. Of course Tate is not wearing pants...but hey...it's his birthday...what better way to celebrate!
