We kicked off the festivities with Dave's birthday first. We celebrated a week early since his uncle Mike was coming in town early. We had a birthday dinner at his parents house with Dave's traditional birthday cookie for both him and Madden.
Part of Dave's birthday gift was going to Chicago for a Cubs game with a couple of his bowling buddies, so when we returned from his weekend away Madden and I had balloons and cupcakes waiting. Both kids were super excited for mini cupcakes, they couldn't take their little eyes off them!
Both Dave and I took the Friday before Madden's birthday off with the intentions of spending the day having a "big kid" celebration just the three of us. Somehow Dave got caught up in getting some yard work around the house last minute so it was done for MJ's birthday party. So Madden and I dropped of little sister at daycare then went to breakfast just the two of us. He chose McDonald's, he really wanted a cheeseburger for breakfast but compromised with pancakes and ALL the syrup. He really loved the old school McD's characters they had there.
We took Madden to an afternoon movie to see the Secret Life of Pets, which we loved. Madden loved the pooping bunny. Then we took the kids for their first Chuck E. Cheese experience!!!

Madden was so excited when we pulled up to the parking lot, I wish I would have gotten it on video. You would have thought we were at Disney World or had won the lottery. He was literally bouncing off the walls, running from one game to the next nonstop the entire time we were there.
He just loved all the games and even the rides, which he never use to like. His favorite games were basketball, shooting a duck with a water gun, any that involved shooting a gun, and the wack a mole type games. Harper even had a good time, she was mesmerized by the Chuck E Cheese show on the stage and when they sang Happy Birthday for one of the kids parties. She even loved the pizza, people watching and all the flashing lights.
Can't believe my baby is FOUR!
