Grayden is FOUR!!




My big boy turned FOUR!! I absolutely LOVE birthdays! My boys birthdays mean so much to me and I will be the first to admit I go ALL OUT CRAZY for them! I love baking and decorating there cakes myself from scratch. I love making the theme of there birthday what they love or were interested in that year! I love decking out my house with decorations that go with the theme. I love the big personalized banners I hang on the wall with there picture on it. I love the way it makes me feel to have accomplished so much to make there day so special. But most of all, I love the looks on there faces when they see all the balloons everywhere or the huge smile and sigh they give when they see the cake there mommy made :)

Grayden was really into PIRATES this year so he asked for a pirate birthday, and a pirate birthday he got :) This theme was soooo much fun with endless possibilities. We had decorations galore, food to match the theme, a water mellon shark, and the coolest pirate ship cake made 100% by me. (With a little help from Daddy)

I had so much fun with this theme and everyone loved it (especially the birthday boy)

So whats new with Gray in the last 6 months!

-You started pre-school January 9, 2012
-You have moved up from nursery to a sunbeam (you are not liking this transition so far)
-You were in swimming lessons as an otter :)
-Speech therapy is going really well. We are just working with keeping your toungh behind your teeth for S and working on saying he for a boy and she for a girl. You are doing to good.
-You are totally into superheroes right now! I can guarantee that I will be planning some sort of superhero theme next year :) We have turned our green drink into "hulk drink" or any green veggies for that matter into "hulk snacks" It makes eating greens a lot easier for you.
-you love dress up
-Your into this phase of calling things or people poopy or pee pee head, or you call them a baby including your mom and dad. you have also started using the word HATE!! UGH....im not liking that at all :( You have even told us that you hate us which is horrible to hear but we know you don't really understand.
-independent is your middle name. You can now fully dress yourself :) and you are so proud when you do :)
-You are sooooo loving and kissy when you want to be. The moments when you are tired or have just woken up, or when Im laying with you to sleep. You love to kiss and hug me over and over :) I absolutely love it and laying with you before bed is one of my favourite moments with you.
-We still sing twinkle little star to sleep but you also love to sing "i am a child of God" because you sing it lots in primary
-You are one social boy!!! You LOVE your friends and love to play with everyone.
-One really cute thing you do that always cracks me up is whenever you show off or do something cool, you always make sure were watching and then you turn around and give us this adorable look and stick up your index finger lol You are meaning to give the thumbs up, but for whatever reason you stick up your index finger. lol Daddy showed you the thumbs up when you were little and you have stuck up you index finger ever since LoL ...so sweet!
