Simi's Finally Four!

Because of his surgery, we held Simi's formal birthday party a month early. Since having 20 four year-olds into a gym can be very physical, we chose to have Simi's party before his surgery. And since we left for surgery on October 4th, we had his party on Saturday, October 1st. That's when we started celebrating Simi's birthday.

Then, we had a small party while we were in Boston. Well, the party was actually for Simi's Grandpa Harris, but Grandpa Harris didn't want a party so we had one for Simi instead. Plus, he had just gotten out of the hospital, so it seemed like a good idea...

And, of course, we had a party at Grandma and Grandpa Singh's house to celebrate...

And I can't remember the rest right now, but I think we had a few small parties along the way...
But I do remember thinking, "is this kid ever going to turn four? Good golly, it feels like we've been celebrating for a LONG time and he's STILL not four?

Today, he finally turned four. He had an absolutely wonderful day. The first thing Simi said to me when he woke up this morning is, "Mommy, I'm four years old today!!!!!" He was VERY excited. He dressed up as Spiderman (his choice), and happily paraded around with the other Spidermen in his pre-school parade. Then, we had a small Halloween party at his pre-school (parents invited). Then, they sang "Happy Birthday" to him at lunch time. Then, we had a cake and a small party for him here at the house.

We can now FINALLY stop celebrating Simi's birthday. Phew!
