I'm still denial that my Baby Boy is growing up! Although he assured me yesterday that he is STILL my Baby Boy! So that makes me feel a bit better! Ü We had a fun day yesterday, it was a full day all about him, and although he wasn't to sure about all the attention he had a GREAT day!! He told me last night at 11 when he finally was ready to go to sleep (we have 8:30 church, but he was up and happy at 7:00am!) that he had a FUN birthday! Ü
I have a TON of pictures to share, to start, I know I do this every year for my kids but I love to look back on them when they were little!
Here is our big, bright eyed BOY...
April 17th, 2006
One...
Two...
Three...
And FOUR!
I just LOVE this picture! Isn't he adorable?!
We decided to bake his cake the night before his birthday, that way it'd be nice and cool to ice in the morning... He loves to help me in the kitchen!
Plus when you get to lick the chocolate, that's a plus!! He really enjoys his chocolate, can't ya tell?! Ü
The BIRTHDAY BOY! Eating his doughnut for breakfast while watching Disney Channel...
We decorated his cake after breakfast... All he wanted was his "Aero" train on his cake! This boy LOVES his Geo Trax! He told me where to put everything on the cake! They are all things from his Geo Trax... I'm no cake decorator but I'm pretty happy with how this turned out, plus he LOVED it!
Here is his loot from us... Can you say spoiled?!
The kids spent the good part of the morning on the neighbors tramp jumping... Maci in action!
Aww... They are the cutest kids on the planet! Even with crazy tramp hair...
We let him open just a couple presents in the afternoon before we headed to the indoor pool... These pictures aren't the best technically but the facial expressions this kid makes are hilarious!
His first present, Optimus Prime beach towel!! I think he likes it...
(yes, we totally planned for him to open it before we went swimming!)
Then we let him open the present Mee Maw sent him (Brian's Grandma)... Again, watch the facial expressions...
He LOVES it!! A new Geo Trax train! (that makes 5 now!) Thanks Mee Maw!!
I''m so impressed with this boy! He is always thinking of others... When he woke up yesterday morning and climbed up in bed with us, I said... "Bubba, guess what?! Today's your birthday!" and he replied, "Yep! And now next it's Maci's!" I loved how the first thing out of his mouth on HIS day was something about his sister!! Then, my Grandma brought doughnuts and balloons over in the morning from my Mom... As we were waiting for my family from Cedar City to come to our house so we could head to the pool, Kernan grabbed the balloons from my family and said, "I want to let these go to Broc!" and he walked right out front and let them go! Again, love that he thought about letting them go to Broc and not keeping them for himself!!
Although, as you can see, they didn't get to far! They are still hanging on the telephone wires out in front! But hey, it's the thought that counts right?! Ü
The Pool!! We gave him his choice like a week before his birthday as to what he wanted to do, go swimming or go out and ride dirt bikes and quads. Well when we asked him he had just woken up so he was a bit grumpy and didn't answer us... Later that day we were in the car running errands and he said, "Mom, I shink I want to go swimming for my birthday, cuz I'm a really good swimmer, huh Mom?!" So swimming it was!!
This picture makes me sad, it's so blurry but I just can't get rid of it and I had to put it up here!! My boys looks SO cute even if they are out of focus!
After 3 hours of swimming all over the pool this is what happened on our drive home.... Passed out!
We all ate pizza and waited around a bit for him to wake up, which as you can see, he was OUT!! Ü I took this picture with my cell...
But the natives were getting restless and wanted cake and ice cream, so we ended up waking him up, he did not want to wake up, but when there is a present in your face you can be persuaded a bit easier... Although, as you can see he wasn't really all the way awake! haha!
Again, with the facial expressions!! The last present and finally awake! Ü
The candles lit on his cake, the yellow one plays "Happy Birthday"...
But he doesn't like everyone making a big deal about him so this was his face as we sang to him... At least it wasn't like my birthday where he was yelling at everyone to "Stop singing that song!"
And BLOW!
Our little chocolate lover... 3rd generation right there... him, his Dad, and Poppy are ALL chocoholics!!
Playing with one of his new toys... I love how independent this kid is! All the other kids were playing all over, the Dad's were taking myUncle Jeff's Aunt Bobbi's Mother's Day present out for a test drive and he just played with his new toy! (my Aunt got a Razor, but really, let's be honest.. it's my Uncle's new toy! Ü)
He also got a new suit from Mommy and Daddy... I took these this morning before church... He looks SO handsome!! He likes it because he says he looks like his Uncle Kolby!
This picture is bitter sweet... before I know it he'll be 19 and on a mission of his own! Why do kids have to grow up so dang fast?! But it's my favorite because he looks up to Kolby so much, and he loves this because it's just like him!!
Oh my sweet little boy... I want you to know that Mommy and Daddy love you very much! You were such a huge answer to our prayers and a big blessing to our family! I don't know what our lives would be like without you in it... I'm sure it wouldn't be as exciting, you know how to make us all laugh! You're a ham! You are quite but once you get comfortable you talk a mile a minute. I love how independent you are and how you spend hours a day building your geo trax train, you get up in the morning and say, "Whoa, I got a lot of work to do, I better get busy!" and off you go building a new track! You amaze me with how smart you are! You love to build puzzles and are VERY good at it! It's a bit scary how well you do with electronics! You can work my phone and iPod touch better then I can sometimes! And you play your sister's Nintendo DS more then she does!! I love your loving heart, and how you're always thinking of others. I love when you see a toy that you think Trevor or Chase or Maci, etc would want you want to buy it for them! You're such a good friend! You light up my days and I hope that you'll never get to big and you'll always want to be my "baby boy"! I love you Bubba!!

Wow what a day! And what a kid :) I am glad that he had such a fun day. Sorry we missed it! And yep gotta love the facial expressions.... what a character. So he is four now, its all the four year old attitude now... we hope righT?! Haha
I had to Lol when I saw the shorts Maci's was wearing, from Emilee to Stockton to Maci. Haha
The pictures of "Elder Mandile" are priceless, and your right it will all be right here so soon! I love how he looks up to his Uncle Kolby, so do I!
Well, now it's on to the next celebration..... Wahoo!
Thank you so much for a fun day. from morning donut run, to swimming, to pizza, to cake and ice cream. So very thankful for the love we have in our family, it does make life sweet.
That is the cutest suit!! (hand - ME - downs :)Even if it's like 2 years from now :) I'm glad he had such a great birthday, wish we could have been there. His hair is getting DANG long! He makes me think of a California surfer boy, just needs a tan hahahah. Ok, maybe he's just Rosalie's little brother. Were excited to see you guys in a month. Were planning on coming up the Thursday before and leaving the Monday after. Hopefully, I can talk Dad into one extra day.
Oh and even though Trevor doesn't really KNOW KOlby. If you mention his name (of course his cousin also) he'll say, he's on a mission. It's amazing how it sticks in their minds. I hope it sticks for the future.
I'm not sure what's wrong with me but the post makes me feel like crying. WOW!! He has changed so much!! He is so handsome Jessica and so cute with his shaggy hair. He looks like he has grown so darn much since I last saw him. I love the last two pictures.. bet you'll be cherishing those when he gets older.
