Caleb's Birthday "Party"

Poor Caleb didn't get a "real" birthday party this year. His first one was cancelled because Ethan was sick. So we re-scheduled for the next weekend. Then Caleb was sick. So we decided to scrap the whole thing and try again next year. Luckily we could get away with it since he is still young. That is, if Ethan would stop asking when Caleb is getting his birthday party!

We started a tradition for the kids on their birthdays that they get to go out to eat wherever they want on their birthday. Luckily we took Caleb on birthday because that turned out to be his party! He chose to go to Christina's. It's a yummy mexican restaurant where he always gets tacos. Strange request from a kid who now only eats bologna.

Ethan tried to go to the restaurant like this. That request was denied.

Coloring like a big boy while waiting for the food.

He also played a little drum solo with the silverware.

This is how he eats his tacos...with Daddy feeding him. He gets so mad if he holds the taco himself and if breaks. He screams, "It's broken!" and he won't eat it. Also, it's much cleaner.

We also feed him the rice. Yes, he can feed himself but eating rice is a disaster on his own! More of it ends up on the floor or in his lap than in his tummy.

Ethan needed a pic of him eating his mexican food, I mean, mac & cheese and fries. That's what he gets every time we go there.

Blowing out his birthday candle. They gave him fried ice cream that he didn't eat. We didn't eat it either. It was covered in coconut! Way to ruin ice cream!

He did sample some whipped cream off the top.

He got a new Buzz Lightyear!

He was so excited! He has been playing with an old beat up one that doesn't have all of the features that this one has. He is a Toy Story maniac!

I made him a cookie cake for his birthday celebration at home. Good thing I did since that was the only "cake" he got. Poor thing.

He barely even ate it. Just picked at it. He was probably too full of tacos!

Ethan gobbled it up!


Here's a video of the pitiful mexican restaurant version of Happy Birthday.
