Look Who's {4}

Happy Birthday Cole and Jack

Yesterday our boys turned 4. I can hardly believe it. Where does the time go? In 4 short years, they have learned to walk, talk, feed themselves, dress themselves, entertain themselves, and play by themselves. What am I to do with my time? They have blessed our home unbelievably, made us laugh, made us grow, made us happy, made us proud, and made ME freak out a time or two. I love them more than anyone could ever imagine. We had a combined birthday party a week ago for all 3 of the kids. But on their special day they took Batman and Spider-Man cupcakes to school, rode their new scooters, played with their new Imaginex toys, took a trip to Toys-R-Us and ate at Kentucky Fried Chicken (their choice). I hope they had a great day and will have an even better year being 4.

Here are just a couple of pictures at the big birthday bash. We had about 18-20 of Lily's friend and Jack and Cole's friends. We went to this big place where there are a bunch of those big blown up jumping trampolines. As you can see by Lily's hair, they had a blast.

I can not believe that they are already 4!!! I remember like it was just yesterday when I came to visit you and the two of them in the hospital. Man, time is a strange thing. Happy Happy birthday to them. Looks like it was a good one. I need to call you about coming and visiting in April. How much longer are you there?
