Apollo's Four!

Yes, I'm a little behind. This would have been a March event ;-)

Teesha was my right hand man in creating this cake. She had never made a fondant cake before so I took her through the steps and once we finished assembling the cake she cut out the mountains and tracks and painted on the trees. Not too shabby eh?







We had celebrated Apollo's birthday earlier on his actual birthday so when the Holcomb's and Anderson's brought gifts, he was thrilled! He got an awesome button up hoody shirt and an amazing binder full of Thomas the Tank Engine trading cards, tattoos and stickers. Thanks A's and H's!!! His Uncle Duncan and Aunt Kaitlyn spoiled him by taking him to his favorite places: Casa Luna in Poulsbo and Coldstone. Then he got to pick out a train at Target. So fun!!! Thanks Nunk & Kait!!!
There's never a dull moment with my little guy around (don't let him know I said that). Thus, his very own blog: http://buddygardner.blogspot.com/. We are so grateful we were blessed with such an amazing, fun, smart and loving little guy four years ago. It was a doozie getting him here (18 hrs of labor then came 12 lb Apollo by c-section) but I wouldn't change anything 'cause I love my buddy. It's hard seeing him grow up so fast. Before I know it he'll be trotting off to Kindergarten. I know the tears are definitely going to flow out of my faucet. Cherish those moments you have with your little ones. They don't last forever.

It's tradition that we take each of our kids out seperately on their birthday to dinner. Instead of going to Red Robin (which is usually the first choice)...
