I had my mind set on giving Cayle a fun birthday party, regardless of 
the fact that we'd have a newborn in the house.  So before Lindy was 
born, I started working on Cayle's party.  I had wanted to give him a 
farm animal party, but that theme fell through.  I decided Cayle would 
really enjoy a bike themed party since he loves to ride his bike.  I 
found some items on etsy.com and was able to order party invitations and
 other items that matched the theme.  We had mac n cheese with wheels 
(bike wheels!), pizza logs, fresh fruit, and spinach salad to eat.  I 
ordered a blank cake from Costco and then decorated it myself.  One of 
the items I ordered from etsy.com was an iron-on design for shirts, so 
Cayle gave that as a party favor to his guests.  The weather didn't 
fully cooperate, so we had the party in the garage and not the back 
yard.  (Poor Nick - he spent all that time making the yard look 
fantastic!)  I had streamers, ribbons, balloons, and name tags for the 
kids to use to decorate their bikes.  We did get to go on a bike parade 
through the neighborhood.  Cayle and his friends seemed to have a great 
time!
