Zoo with Auntie Heidi

While I went to Akron with my mom & dad to visit Arthur (my cousins baby who is in the NICU), Auntie Heidi and Brad went to the zoo with the kids. They had an awesome trip, kind of jealous! Although it was great to finally get to go see Arthur and Katie.

I love this picture with the alligator behind Jonathan.
Jonathan got to feed the giraffe!

Do some gardening...

Jonathan got to feed the giraffe at the zoo today.

Presents!

Jonathan sure did get spoiled with presents for his 4th birthday! Here are some pictures of a few of the presents.

Diana

Jonathan's birthday party was a bit chaotic for Miss Diana. She was a little overwhelmed and had to be held or watched closely as she almost got stepped on a few times by the older kids.

She loves to play under the table.

JT 4th Birthday Party

Oops I think Mommy bought too many balloons for Jonathan's birthday party...he almost flew away. :-) Note to self, 2 dozen balloons is probably more than enough for a party (they almost didn't all fit in the truck).

It was a space/rocket theme party. Jonathan picked the red border and green writing (his two favorite colors). I thought it would look like Christmas but I think they did a great job with the cake.

John Deere

Some little boy is a proud owner of a John Deere bike.  We drove all the way (yes, I thought it was far...20 minutes...but as Brad said anything longer than 5 minutes is far for me in my "world") to Florence, KY to go to a John Deere store.  Jonathan was in heaven!  Diana even seemed to enjoy herself.  Thank you to Nana and Grandpa Gordy for buying Jonathan his first big boy bike with training wheels!

Birthday Presents

Can you say "Spoiled?!?" Jonathan had a great birthday! Golf clubs from GB & Grandpa Weeks (we sure hope we got lessons included with them though), Tball stuff from Mom & Dad (a real metal bat and hard ball...Mom is scared)... A pirate costume that Nana made

A new bike from Nana and Grandpa Gordy A spaceship from Auntie Heidi and Uncle Jason

I think it is safe to say this little man got everything he wanted for his birthday.
