Levi is 4!

Levi is officially a FOUR year old. It's hard to believe half of his life he has been in Texas now. We moved here right after he turned 2 and time has been flying by. He is at such a fun age and I am so glad he has a Fall birthday, so that he doesn't have to start kinder next year. When Katelyn turned 4, she was 1 year off from Kinder and now I am realizing how much I cherish these preschool years.

We celebrated all day long! The kids were all up before 6 on the morning of his birthday, it felt like Christmas morning! :/  He opened our presents and then Mimi and Pops too since they were staying with us for the weekend. He got way too many presents...haha! 

 

Pops waffles and orange juice by request of the birthday boy!

These kiddos love their Pops' waffles!! 

 

Time to play!!

Juggle bubbles

And a weather lab for our little "weatherman".

In the afternoon we had his party at the Texas Transportation Museum. It's mainly trains....full size train rides and model trains, but it also has old antique cars, fire trucks, tractors, etc. It's a volunteer run organization, they were all so nice and the party turned out perfect for our little wheel loving boy!

I was scrolling through cake ideas on pinterest and Levi saw this cupcake cake and had to have it. It turned out fairly cute and wasn't too hard, although the icing wasn't my favorite choice, but the kids seemed to like it. 

Grammy and Kyler had lots of bonding time at the party while I took care of the details. Thanks Grammy! 

Cindy, Matt, & Drew drove over from Houston just for the day! It sure made Levi feel special, thank you!!!

The antique fire truck was a big hit!

Levi's best friend is Katherine from Preschool and Sunday School. She is so sweet and so are her parents. It was adorable to see how he interacted with her outside of school. 

Taking a train ride!

Beautiful day at the Train Museum

After the party we came home and played with some of his new toys! This hot wheels garage has been a big hit, thanks Grammy & Pappy!
