Caydin the Monkey turns 4!!!!

 I can hardly believe that Caydin is 4!!!
We had a great birthday weekend celebrating with family and friends!
Last Wednesday, Grandma and Grandpa drove down from Virginia and surprised Caydin at gymnastics.
On Thursday, Tee-tee drove down and surprised Caydin with a REALLY late night visit (Caydin was tooooo sleepy to realize that she was even here!)
On Friday, Caydin was surprised with a visit to an old Firestation muesum.  Inside, he saw lots of old firetrucks!  After a quick trip to the dump with Grandpa, Oma and Opa came for a visit.  We made sandwiches for lunch and had lots of play time!  Daddy went to the movies (to see the new Batman movie) Friday night so Mommy, Tee-tee and the boys went swimming at Grandma and Grandpa's house.  (Mommy and Tee-tee even went for a 2 and a half mile jog).  After swimming, we headed home to see Uncle Jay, Auntie Jen, and cousin Jay and Caydin had a sleepover with Grandma and Grandpa!
On Saturday, Mommy and Tee-tee got the party stuff all together and did a little bit of running around for last minute stuff.  Caydin did A TON of swimming in the morning! First with Grandpa, then Uncle Jay, then Daddy! Then it was PARTY TIME!!!!!
We are so thankful for everyone who was able to come and celebrate another year with Caydin!
On Sunday, we spent some more time with Tee-tee, Uncle Jay, Auntie Jen, and cousin Jay before everyone headed home.  In the afternoon, we spent time with Oma and Opa before they headed home too.
On Monday, Caydin woke up to 60 balloons on the floor in his room!  We had to get up early for swim lessons.  When I called Caydin's name to wake him up, he responded "I can't get up, there is balloons all over the room!"  After swim lessons, we headed home for play time (and nap time for Mommy and Wyatt!) Then Caydin and Daddy fell asleep on the couch!  After everyone had a nap, we headed out to get frozen yogurt with all the toppings that Caydin wanted! :) Finally, we headed home to wait for our friends to come and play!
Such a BUSY and FUN birthday for the Cayman!
