Henry turned four on Friday and we had a wonderful day celebrating his birthday. Leading up to the big day when you asked Henry if he was excited to turn four his response would be, “I’m scared to turn four”. He then said that he is going to keep pretending to be three. After his birthday, I have yet to hear him say he wants to be three. I think he is pretty excited to be four. In the afternoon we had neighborhood kids over and a friend from school over for cake and ice cream. Meema, Boopa, Gramma, Grampa, Aunt Laura, and Aunt Ashlee all came as well. It was a full house and he loved it. All he wanted was people to sing him happy birthday. This is the smile he had on his face:
Just melts my heart!
Here are a few more pictures from the day:
Here’s a bit of what he’s up to at four:- Still a dancing/dress up machine. He loves dressing up and dancing to any kind of music.
- Counting. He counts everything and anything.
- A little builder. Legos are now a big thing with him and he loves constructing towers.
- Trains. He had a Thomas the Train birthday party and loved having his trains out and moving on the floor.
- True enthusiasm about everything.
- At bedtime he insists on have two nightlights and his nightstand light on or else he won’t sleep.
- Finally getting into things he likes versus what Claire likes. It’s been fun seeing his interests grow.
Here are a few pictures of Cameron since he is a growing machine right now:
The older kids are really into something called fuse beads that Claire got for her birthday. Claire especially. She is insisting on making one creation for all of her classmates. Henry likes them too, but only lasts about five minutes.
*We just got back from Henry's four year well check and he is still our big guy! 3 feet 8 inches tall (99th percentile) and 42 lbs (90th percentile).
