bounce birthday party!

So we have survived and enjoyed the big birthday week at our house.
Pop, Daniel, Georgia & Hayes all have birthdays in early September..so needless to say it's a little hectic around here. We decided to have their party at a location other than our house this year..for my sanity's sake. We chose am indoor bounce place. It was great and easy and I was so happy to be inside when it was pouring down rain all evening.

Hayes is 4....

Well, it happened. I can't believe that he is 4 years old. My only boy is acting like a big boy. He is such a typical guy...being a super hero, he is scared of nothing and he loves his momma!
Hayes is 43 inches tall & 40 pounds. He is seemingly built like his father...Hayes is a whipper snapper & is always on the go...I wish I had the energy..I don't obviously. He loves his sisters and doesn't seem to care he is the only boy.
I really enjoy my time with him & can always count on him being hungry, thirsty or bored. He wants to cuddle, play video games, or do something crazy. I know he is a brave boy & yet he is so sweet & gentle. He is definitely a lover.. he loves reading books, doing puzzles & sharing a snack. I am so thankful for this sweet boy & loved getting to hear his thoughts on being 4!!! Why is he already 4?? One thing I know for sure..He is sure of himself..and I love that. He said he would 'always be my baby, no matter how big he was, he could be my big baby and that he has more, more, more kisses for me!' What a sweetie!
Hayes is a big boy at 41 pounds. He is taller than most kids his age as well. Hayes is great at school & always gets excellent behavior remarks from his teachers. At home he isn't as sweet always. When he doesn't want to do something it is hard to get him to change his mind. He is pretty stubborn but I think he can work that for the good one day!
Hayes is definitely athletic & a go-getter. He is willing to try things (most of the time) and is usually pretty good at them. Hayes isn't a great eater & would live off cereal & goldfish if we let him.
I am so happy to call him mine!!
