Saturday we celebrated Roman's (our oldest) 4th birthday. It was such a good day! Tiring, but so much fun! All the kids enjoyed themselves, and it was nice seeing family and friends. One of Roman's favorites at the moment is the Lion Guard. The decorations were so cute! We got them at Party City and I themed the snacks around the characters like I normally do. I was lucky and thankful that Roman already had the main crew of figurines for the cake! I baked just a regular white/vanilla cake and iced the bottom tier with green butter cream to represent the grass, and the top I colored the butter cream black, red, orange, and yellow to represent the sunset on the pride lands. All in all it turned out super cute and Roman loved it!

On his actual birthday (August 14th) today, I stuck a bunch of balloons in his bed with him and he got some pancakes in bed for breakfast...along with cupcakes again this afternoon. We finished this evening with taking him out to get some Mexican food (one of his favorites) where he was sung to and got some ice cream! He was in bed by 8pm tonight! His birthday wore him out! I only got teary eyed a few times today. I can't believe my baby Roman is already four.
Roman Eli,
Happy birthday, big 4 year old! You made me a Mommy and have shown me so much love and joy to last me a lifetime. I cherish each day I have with you, because I know one day I'll blink and you'll be going off on your own. I won't have every snuggle and kiss each morning and night. Or the delight of hearing your little giggles when I'm having a rough day. Although it's hard, I love watching you grow up into a handsome little man and seeing the kindness and goofiness in you grow bigger. You're such a good big brother and Axel is so lucky to have you. You're challenging most of the time, but I would take every bad day a thousand times just to have the good days. I love you sweet boy. Happy 4th Birthday!
