Austin had a great birthday and birthday weekend! Every day he woke up and wanted to know if it was still his birthday . . . so, of course it was! First his birthday eve, then birthday, then birthday weekend! We got him a fish tank so, Austin and Brian headed out to the store to buy a few fish and all the fish tank supplies. Austin picked out three fish and named them; Fin (which is an excellent fish name), Tiger, and Cheetah Boy. Austin is so far excited to get to feed them everyday.
On Saturday we went to Comfort Suites, where the grandparents were staying, and swam in the pool. Austin was in the pool from 3:15 until 7:15. Four non-stop hours of fun! A few friends were able to make it too. Aiden came and so did Charlee. We also got to meet a distant cousin on the Kliegl side who came as well, his name was Alex and him and Austin were great little buddies right off the bat!

Colton, taking it easy in the little part of the pool. This pool is fantastic for kids because it has a zero entry area as well as a waterfall for all the kids to enjoy. Nate and his friend Cory came swimming as well. Austin and Colton loved jumping in the deep end where Nate and Cory would catch them and run them back and forth along the length of the pool. It was a great day and the boys were very worn out when we got home. They slept hard Saturday night and they slept really well on Sunday night too!
Austin requested a superhero themed birthday party! He picked out special superhero cups for the punch, Batman plates for lunch, and a HULK cake. I didn't know how I was going to make it happen but Austin knew what his cake was right away and was very excited to show it off to everyone when they arrived for the weekend.
Zoey, Austin, and Charlee! Annie made four super hero capes for Austin. They were immediately put on by the four kiddos at the party! These four then zoomed all over the house chasing the bad guy . . . who was Nick.
Colton!
Austin and Courtney
By the time everyone cleared out, the boys were exhausted and so were Brian and I. We got the house straightened up and the boys were definitely ready for bed when the time came. We woke up on Sunday to a pretty terrible ice storm. The roads were covered in ice and about half of the guests ended up cancelling. I didn't now how the party was going to turn out but it turned out GREAT! Austin had a fun time and last night he asked me again, "How many minutes until I am five?" I would say the entire weekend was a success!
