Will's Birthday Surprise

It snowed on Will's birthday!! He was so excited about the snow that he asked us about 10 times before bed on Sunday night if it would still be there when he woke up. And it was! Lots of slushy, cold, icy snow covered the ground. It turned out to be the perfect day because Dan was home from work and so we got an extra day to our weekend! Will, Dan, and Andrew worked hard to build a really cute snowman in the backyard. I ran outside to take a few pictures, but was glad to get back to the warm kitchen to make breakfast.


The ice on the roads melted as the day went on, so we went ahead with our plans to take Will out to dinner for his birthday. We got the staff to sing to him, and he was soooooo embarassed. He slunk down into the booth and turned eight shades of red. He comes by it honestly! After the singers left, he asked "why did they sing to me?" I only wish I would have had my camera out. Oh well, here is a shot of him enjoying his sundae!


It was a really fun 4th birthday! I can't believe my boy is 4. When I think back at all he has learned and how far he has come, it feels like it has been 4 years, but then in so many other ways he still feels like my baby. He is such a smart, sweet, fun little person who I am proud of every day of his life! I love you Will!!
