Today was Jacob's birthday, it's so hard to believe but he is 5 years old already!! My little baby boy is getting so big! We started the day out with kolaches from his favorite local bakery, Max Donuts. Ironically Jacob's birthday fell on field trip day. I surprised him the night before by telling him that mommy was going to go with him! He was so excited!! We got to school, did a little coloring, and waited to get ready for the field trip. The kids in his class were so super excited & hyper for the trip!
For the days adventure we headed to The and Woodlands Mall to go to Exploration Station .
The kids were taken on a tour of their little bug exhibit. They got to see spiders, walking sticks, cock roaches! Jacob was brave enough to pet one!! It wasn't the normal type it was a Madagascar hissing cock roach!
After the bug talk, it was dinosaur time! I think this was the favorite of all the kids, they really seemed to enjoy it! There is a large pit with a dinosaur skeleton, covered with "dirt" and the kids get all kinds of "tools" to uncover the bones! I have a few pics!
Jacob's treasure from the excavation site!
After the field trip fun, we headed back to school, the kids took a nap, and finished their day! I was tired, but it was fun! My mom & I finished up some party planning for the party on Sunday, and by then it was time for Jacob to be picked up. Scott went to pick up Brandon and we all went to eat at Zio's for dinner. We had a good time, but it was such a busy day, he was so tired!
After spaghetti & meatballs, the wait staff came to sing 'Happy Birthday' to Jacob, he was so cute, I think he got a little embarrassed, but I know he loved the attention!
Here's a few close ups of the ooey gooey chocolate sundae... He loved it!!! Can you tell?
