Happy Birthday Carson

I can't believe my baby is 4. Four years ago today we became parents and I remember it as if it was yesterday. I remember laying there for what felt like minutes until they final announced, "It's a Boy!" And we were introduced to a 9lb 6oz healthy baby boy that would forever change our lives.

A baby that would turn into a little boy who every morning around 5am quietly enters our room and asks to sleep with his daddy. A baby who now asks for peanut butter and jelly every day for lunch. A baby who now says Please and Thank You after everything (including me wishing him a Happy Birthday this morning). A baby who tonight will be the proud owner of a 16 inch bike without training wheels. A baby who in just 17 months from now will enter Kindergarten. A baby who is so very much looking forward to the arrival of his new brother or sister (he would prefer a brother!).

Carson you are the light of our world. You have brought your daddy and I so much joy. We are so proud of you and today we wish you a very Happy 4th Birthday! We love you Little Man!

Yesterday it was Carson's turn to bring birthday treats to school. Which also means he gets to be Line Leader, a position that is highly guarded in the preschool world. All his preschool friends sang Happy Birthday to him and he was enthroned with a sticker and a birthday hat!

We celebrated Carson's birthday last weekend. We headed to Space Aliens for dinner and some games.

Carson wanted a Transformer Cake. We convinced him that doing a Decepticon symbol was the best (and easisest). It supposed to be purple but we didn't have the right food coloring so we convinced him that green would work.

And a bat to go with.
