Happy Birthday Little Man!!!!!

Andrew had a great day today. He started the day bright and early at 6:15 (we have a tradition of waking up eachother on their birthday's and singing to them but he beat us to the punch) and woke us up. The girls were so excited to give him his present. He got a spiderman bike and helmet with a little bell on it. He was loving it!! Paul couldn't wait to put it together so we could see him ride it. Later on in the morning, Andrew had two of his buddies come over to play. They had a great time playing red light, green light and racing their matchbox cars on his race track. For lunch, he got to go to McDonalds and then came home and watched the movie Up while Paul and I got some stuff done around the house getting ready for his birthday party. After dinner, all of our family on Paul's side came over. We played lots of games, ate cake and ice cream, and opened presents. After everyone left, and we were reading scriptures and saying prayers before bed, he quickly began to loose it. He crashed in bed within minutes and is hopefully dreaming of riding a bike without the training wheels on :) We love you Andrew, what a joy it is to have you in our family!!!!!
He is just radiating joy in this picture. He really had a great day!!!!!

He got the Helmet first in our bedroom and then came out to the living room to find the bike.

Oh joy, oh joy, oh joy, oh joy!!!

Here he is pumping up his tires ready to get on his bike!!!!



Above is a photo of a relay race we did where you have to put on a series of clothes and run around. They had so much fun and the adults were cracking up watching them put their gloves on first and then trying to get the jacket on. We also played hot potato, button button, and one other game we had never played before. The kids had a great time.

I cannot believe that he's four! I love that picture of him beaming with his #4 candle. He looks just like a mini-Paul. :) Happy Birthday, Andrew!
