Caden is now 5 years old, believe it or not. It is crazy! He is full of energy and most would say never has a dull (or quiet) moment. He is a happy and healthy 5 year old. When we went for his 5 year check up last week he weighed 37.5 lbs and was 42 inches tall. Which puts him right around 25th percentile, which is about where my kids live. He is all boy and on the go constantly. He is a great eater but also is on the go so it is not surprising to me that he burns off a lot of what he eats. We celebrated Caden's birthday this year with a Chuck E Cheese party. We had a Jake and the Never Land Pirates theme but really that just consisted of Jake and the Never Land Pirate cupcakes and goody bags for friends because Chuck E Cheese does the rest (of course you pay them for it but at least you don't have to get the stuff). Caden had a lot of fun at his party and having everyone there to celebrate him turning 5. We even got the full Chuck E Cheese birthday experience as Caden and Daddy got to do the ticket blaster! It looks a little insane in the picture but Caden got the 1000 ticket so we got much more elaborate prizes this time than when we usually visit Chuck E Cheese. Caden had lots of fun playing games, hanging out with his friends, eating pizza and cupcakes, opening presents, and doing the ticket blaster. It was a fun evening.
