Jack turned 4 this last week! I'm toughing out my nausea to get on here and document it, even if just to dump some pics and do short captions and then hurry and take my second nap of the day. His favorite gift on his birthday was this big boy bike with training wheels. He's been riding it up and down our entry hall nonstop.
^^All my pics are out of order, but the day after Jack's bday we had a little celebration at Jared's parents place. Jack got a remote control dinosaur (big hit) and blew out lots of candles.
^^I knew I'd be too sick to take on much for Jack's bday this year, so as soon as we found out I was pregnant we bought him this backyard play set from Costco to be his big/only gift. My sweet parents came to visit and help out during Jack's birthday week. My dad did a big chunk of the building for this project which helped us to be able to have it finished enough to show Jack and get him excited on his birthday. Then Jared finished it up the next day. We still need to decide where we're putting it but there's a slide and a play kitchen and Jack is loving it.
^^ Didn't take too many pics when my parents were here but it was so nice to have them to help out with cooking and playing with Jack. I'm in the hardest part of my pregnancy now so it was a great time for them to be around.
Over President's Day weekend we went to visit my brother Jordan's family in their new home near Boise. Jack's been begging to visit his cousin Asher for months and they lived it up. They had the best time together. Jordan and Amanda were earth angels and did an amazing job keeping me fed/distracted through what could have been the worst weekend of my pregnancy (it doesn't get much worse than week 9, but I did surprisingly well most of the time). We had an epic dance party and celebrated Asher's birthday. I'm so glad we had our boys so close in age. They're the cutest and most different buddies. I love them so much.
^^And just for fun a throw back to Valentine's Day. Jack loved doing a Valentine exchange with his preschool friends. That's all I've got for you! Next year I'll do a great recap of Jack at 5. This year I'm going to take a nap because growing a baby kicks my bum. Until next time!
