Birthday and Anniversary

Friday was Caleb's actual birthday, but since we had his party early, he was confused by all the Happy Birthday calls he had. I was worried he would expect another party and cake.We bought Caleb a Monster Truck to drive for his birthday gift from us. He insisted on staying up late to help Greg put it together. He was disappointed when we told him he had to wait 18h to charge the battery before driving it. He was so excited when he finally got to take it for a spin, he loaded up the back net with his favorite toys to go with him. It was amusing watching him try to figure out how to stop the truck. Twice he tried to jump out of the truck instead of just taking his foot off the pedal. Now he seems to have figured it out. We also celebrated Greg and my 5th wedding anniversary on Friday. We enjoyed reminiscing over memories of these past 5 years. It's amazing how fast time goes by. I was already stressing out this past week thinking of Caleb going into kindergarten after dealing with parents this first week of school. I don't think I'll ever be ready for that day.

Today we went to the Ft Worth Zoo for a couple of hours. It had been a while since Caleb has been able to see all the animals. We took advantage of the morning hours when it wasn't so miserably hot . We could hear the Lion roar as we walked through the zoo but, like always, he was napping by the time we reached him. Caleb wasn't too disappointed though, since he was really looking forward to the train ride back to the entrance.
