Last year, David had a terrible stomach flu on his birthday. He was miserable. This year, we either over-compensated for last year or David was just at an age to really enjoy and appreciate his birthday. It feels like the best birthday ever.
At school, they set up the wading pool. He loves the wading pool so his day started off great. When we picked him up, we took him to a bounce place. He loves bounce houses. This one has a lot of slides.
We had an ice cream cake. David doesn't like cake. He LOVES ice cream. The candle was fun for him this year but he ate only the top part of the ice cream cake. I think next year we'll order ahead to get one that is only vanilla because the chocolate was not his favorite.
We then went to a pool. David loves to swim. It may be his very favorite thing to do. This pool is an "adventure pool" as we have taken to calling them. It's shallow but has a lot of spraying water and slides and tubes. He was thrilled!
After the pool, David opened his presents from us. All of his presents were a huge hit! We only got him a book and a toy because we got him the adventures too. It was nice to see him enjoy the toys though. That hasn't always been the case.
It was an absolutely amazing birthday!
