Nathan's Party - finally!

Due to scheduling concerns we didn't have Nathan's party until October 5th.  He was excited to pick out his cake, and again surprised us by picking a pumpkin cake.

 He picked out the candles and wanted to put them on the cake himself.  

Clustering is the way to go this year, apparently!

 Amazed by the sparkler!

 Pointing out that the sparkler has stopped sparkling.

 Blowing out the candles.

 It took 3 tries to get the candles out.

 Presents!

Jell-o Brain!

While doing some shopping at the Co-op, we found a mold for a Jell-o brain.  The boys came home and insisted we make it, right away.  

With the hold came a recipe book with multiple suggestions on flavors and textures.  

This is the first one we tried.  The boys have the other options already planned!

The Baconeater!

Nathan got a special present in the mail today.  He LOVES bacon.  He can eat an entire pound of bacon all by himself, in one sitting.  And he is four.   If you ask him what he wants for breakfast, lunch, or supper, his response is typically bacon.  

Aunt Cherlyn and Uncle Smokey found this shirt and it reminded them of Nathan.  He opened his package and put on the shirt.  He is obviously in love with his shirt.  Thanks Aunt Cherlyn & Uncle Smokey!
