Happy Birthday!!!

My baby boy turned 4 yesterday!!!  I can't believe he's sooooo big! 

We started the day by singing Happy Birthday and letting Ava Kate wake him up...

birthday streamers and balloons...

a little balloon game to start the morning...

We spent the morning lounging in our pajamas, letting the birthday boy open presents, and making donuts!

Owen has been really wanting donuts lately and after looking for a low-fat version and coming up short....we decided to make our own!  We found a low fat recipe here and used a baby cakes donut maker to make mini donuts that were around 1 grams of fat per donut (way better than 23 grams for 1 Krispy Kreme donut)!  They turned out pretty good and Owen loved them...especially the chocolate ones with sprinkles!


yummy!

Happy Birthday to you...

...Happy Birthday to you, 

...Happy Birthday to Owen, Happy Birthday to You!

delish! 

Yum...

After breakfast, we took Ava Kate to daycare so we could spend the day with Owen!  Our first stop...Bowling!!  



It was Owen's first time to go bowling and he had a blast!

a little help from daddy....

his happy dance....

our first game...

After a second game, we decided it was time for some lunch.  The birthday boy requested a cinnamon roll so we headed to Stonemill Bread Company (since they have delicious fat free cinnamon rolls)!


diggin' in...

The next stop...Toys R Us!



After playing in the store for what felt like 2 hours, the final decision came down to these....

the winners...

After a much needed nap, Owen woke to more presents from Beema and Papa Joe...

Trying out his new Big Wheel! 

After a few spins around the block, it was time for dinner and Birthday cake!  Owen requested "white" noodles and strawberry cake and ice cream....

Happy Birthday to You, Happy Birthday You....
