Jude is 4!

 Jude Michael is 4!  In someways it is hard to believe but in other ways not so much.  He does everything with Eli so in many ways he seems older.  He is absolutely the funniest little guy I have ever met.  He is constantly making us laugh.  He is also quite sensitive as well.  I love seeing the personality he is growing into.  We sure do love our Jude!
We celebrated his birthday over the weekend with our families.  Jude has wanted a Ninja Turtle birthday party ever since Eli had his in January so it was pretty easy throwing it together.  I still had the decorations I had made for Eli's party and this time there were Ninja Turtle party supplies to go with it.  He had an absolute blast at his party!

 Today we celebrated Jude's actual birthday!  He is officially 4 year old!  We had doughnuts for breakfast, a birthday tradition.  Then after all the daycare kids left we let him open his presents and had special cupcakes to celebrate!

Happy 4th Birthday Jude
