It’s Monday! Who could use some sunshine and rainbows today?
Add in a rainbow polka dot vest and I’m pretty sure it doesn’t get cuter!
Vest twinkies!
If that didn’t make it a great Monday, maybe a big kiss and a thumbs up will! 🙂
See you tomorrow!
Celebrating Spencer
We obviously already had Spencer’s big birthday party (Hulk Smash!) but had to celebrate him again on his actual birthday!
He took some awesome cookies to school the day before his birthday… (not made by me!)
and had a breakfast fit for a 4 year old on his big day! Chocolate sprinkle doughnuts!
Baby wanted it to be her birthday!
Don’t worry though, she got a doughnut too! 🙂
That night, Spencer requested pizza for dinner (the big triangle kind, not the square kind!) so, pizza it was followed by a cake decorated by the birthday boy himself!
Cake was, of course, followed by a few presents including his favorite, Ton Ton, one of the Dinotrux! We were so happy to have GJ and Daddo in town to help celebrate!
It was a very happy birthday for my favorite 4 year old buddy!
We love you Spencey!
Backyard
What? More backyard pictures! Oh yes! When I was taking Spencer’s “official” 4 year pictures, I snapped some of the other two as well.
I must say, we’ve gotten a lot of mileage out of this sand table!
I mentioned that Spencer was wanting to go “make a road” in the dirt…well, here he is making that road!
Pretty sure he’s blowing on the dirt through a straw here! ha!
Baby tried it with less than stellar results!
Loving this fall weather and pre-daylight savings time days!
More pictures
When I was posting Spencer’s birthday photos yesterday, I realized I still had some photos from when I took Maxwell’s birthday pictures that I never shared! I think these capture Spencer’s personality a little more accurately! 🙂
I mean…this kid! ha!
I also got some pretty darn cute ones of Baby too!
My sweet baby girl! These pictures were taken 2 months ago and it’s crazy how much longer her hair is now!
How did I get so lucky to get all these cute, good kiddos?
I don’t know, but I’ll sure take em!
Spencer is FOUR
Spencer is FOUR!! My sweet, lovable, happy little guy is four years old.
Newborn…
One year old…
Two years old…
Three years old…
and now FOUR!
This little boy is ALL BOY. He loves to wrestle with Maxwell, play in the dirt, roughhouse with his friends at school, and laugh…oh how he loves to laugh! And it’s possibly the greatest laugh ever heard. He can be the absolute sweetest when he snuggles up with me and asks for a bear hug and a tickle kiss at night. He can also be the most stubborn and frustrating little boy in the world who can throw some pretty epic tantrums. But, he’s getting better about that and he always comes around and says “I sorry.” His imagination is working overtime and I get to hear some funny and interesting stories he makes up from time to time. He’s a happy kid who plays hard, tries hard, and loves hard.
This picture makes me laugh. He was much more interested in going to “make a road” in the dirt than he was in taking pictures! 🙂
He’s got friends at school that he talks about – Sebastian, Stephen, Wade, and Christopher – but his favorite friend is (and I think will always be) Maxwell. They’ve gotten into Star Wars (or Star Burst as he calls it!) and Spencer loves Darth Vader. He also loves to Hulk Smash! He’s happiest when he’s playing and running around outside…or maybe when he’s on the iPad! ha! He and Samantha are like two peas in a pod (and look alike too!) and no one makes Baby laugh harder than Mr. Spencer! 🙂
I sure do love this little boy. I can still see the final traces of baby left in him and I’m trying to soak them up because I know they’ll go quickly. I can’t wait to see the awesome, fun kid he turns into this year.
