Happy Birthday!


Birthday time around here starts in October - we celebrated Tobias' 35th birthday and my 30th birthday just before Halloween. James really enjoyed Halloween this year, especially carving his pumpkin with Tobias.Trick or Treat time for James and his best buddy, Abby. James thought Abby was a beautiful mermaid, but thought she would like being a super hero with him more! Happy Halloween from Spiderman!We had a wonderful birthday party for James this year. One of my dear friends is a phenomenal party planner and made the cake, decorations, and James' special birthday shirt!James wanted a banana flavored Spiderman cake and that's exactly what he got - lucky boy! And the cake tasted as good as it looked!Check out that smile - James in his special birthday shirt!




We had a pizza party for James and his buddies - they watched a Spiderman cartoon while eating pizza and then time for cake and ice cream. Fun times.James also enjoyed a special birthday party at his school. He even got a crown to wear during snack time where he shared his special cupcakes with his buddies.James' special cupcakes for his party at school - don't the look amazing!?!For his birthday dinner, James chose brenner - breakfast for dinner. We had Canadian bacon and chocolate chip pancakes! James even ate off our special family plate that says "God thinks you're special today... and everyday!"
James loved all his presents - he really enjoyed playing with his one of friends from school for a while after his party was over. Those boys played so nicely together!James loves puzzles and we worked together to put together his new floor puzzle. Fun times!The presents were great, but like every child, James also enjoyed popping the packaging bubbles almost as much as the presents themselves!


We are working on our thank you notes now, and I'm so proud to see what a nice job James is doing learning to write his name!


We also took James for his 4 year check up and he is 45.5 inches tall (way above the 95th percentile for height) and 44.8 pounds (exactly 95th percentile for weight) - I just had to brag about those stats!
