Happy 4th Birthday William

We've come a long way in 4 years.  Being a parent is hard work, but very rewarding.  William is now much more independent with dressing, bathroom, eating, etc.  Such a grown up little guy!

We had a great party with lots of fun and good food.  It was a hit with young, old and those in between!

Pictures from my Mom's camera before and during the party....

And just a little trip down memory lane, what a little cutie.

Cold fun at the park

Grandma and Grandpa S came to visit and William had fun keeping them entertained and on their toes.  Will and Grandma were "apple buddies" in the evenings.

Today we headed out for some climbing exercise at the park.  It was cold so we only lasted about 30 min before heading home for cocoa.

Yep!

Having fun with the cooler wagon this week.  Makes a great hid away.

Helping Mom make the beds, they have to be pounced after each removal and addition of a layer.

William's affirmative preference has changed this week.  It used to be um-hm (which is difficult to distinguish from uh-uh, for no) now everything is yep.  It's pretty funny as it is delivered in a very up beat tone.

Adam is headed out to three days of training and G&G S are coming for a visit, so William is excited.  He is also very excited to turn 4 soon.  I keep encouraging his behavior with "I can really tell you are going to be 4 soon" and then watch him puff up his chest proud that he can do so much more.

We are getting stuff set for a fun digger/construction themed party.  Should be a fun time for those who can join us.

Have a great week.
