Birthday Boy

Today our little boy turned four. It's hard to believe we have really been at this parenting thing for four years already!

Alex came in at 6am sharp this morning to wake us up to go down stairs and open presents. He was ready!



We gave him his first bicycle, a blue and red BMX with a coaster break and training wheels. It's a little big for him, but by mid-Spring it should be fine.

Only problem now is we are going to need another one




He also got some wonderful presents from friends and family.






Today Ryanne took him out for lunch and a playdate with his friend Charlotte. Then they picked out a
Chocolate-chocolate-chocolate cake from Whole Foods.

Tonight we had a small dinner with a few of his+our friends at one of those chain restaurants where the waiters all come and sing happy birthday to you. Alex enjoyed it, but his excitement was dampened by getting a tummy bug. We didn't realize how bad he felt until after we got home and he'd had a bath and then got sick. it seems he and I have the same bad birthday luck.

Hope the Birthday Boy feels better today - maybe too much excitement? Sometimes that can do it for me too . . . oh wait it's the tequila that gets me in trouble!!!!! Anyway hope Alex had an awesome #4 birthday!
