So today was the real day that Cade turned 5. Matt and I were trying to remember what time I had Cade 5 years ago and what EXACT TIME he really turned 5. I could not remember. Matt guessed about 7 or so at night. Even though I was exhausted from the day before, I wanted to make his day special. So we had to get up a little earlier and we made Chocolate Chip Pancakes, which he did not eat. (Cade does not really eat that great! Even if I let him choose the breakfast or dinner he wanted that day, he would still not eat it or I would have to sit there and spoon feed him..... unless it was a cookie or candy. SO annoying.) Then after breakfast, I let him open a few more presents that we gave him. He got a Cowboy/Saloon set, some NFL football (little) helmets, a GI Joe jet from Jaice's family, a Hot Wheels play set from Halle's family, some water guns, some other laser guns, a Leapster Batman game, a bug catcher net from Corey and a fun little riding scooter from Nanny and Norm. He had a great birthday.
After breakfast and presents, we had to get ready for church. He celebrated at church too. Then we came home and had ribs... which I again had to force him to eat. Then later we did cupcakes again and let him blow out candles and make a wish. His cousins came over later and I actually let them play outside for a couple of hours because it was such a beautiful day. He had a great day!
Oh and to top the weekend off, on Saturday, Cade had a soccer game and their team won 18-1. something like that....we stopped keeping track. It got a little sad for the other team. The other team was just really young. Cade said he scored one of the goals, but I am not so sure. The way his age-group plays...all in a clump... sometimes it is hard to tell who scored. Corey's team tied 4-4 and she did score one of the goals and assisted on another. So proud of the kiddos and how they improve every week and are loving it.
