Sam is now 4!!!

Our baby boy is 4 years old now. He was so excited for this event. We talked about it all the time. We have been planning his birthday party for months. Sam did not tell us what he wanted for his birthday. Andrew got him an 18 wheeler truck full of farm animals to play with. Owen and I got him a camping play set...complete with man, big truck, side by side and deer. We also gave him a Bat Cave - similar to the Power Ranger one Andrew got for his birthday.

Sam wanted pancakes for his birthday breakfast. My parents were here so they celebrated with us.

Sam is one of a kind. He loves his family something fierce. Andrew is his best friend. He is a tough kid but also very loving and sensitive. He loves an adventure...but only if his family is right beside him.

Sam loves milk and cheese. He also likes all things sweet. He is into super heroes, power rangers, hot wheels, and lego blocks. Sam is a doer...he is a player...he is a thinker. Sam colors very well and stays in the line. He likes bedtime books, but listens while playing with a little man in his bed. Sam likes stuff animals, but would rather have power rangers or army men in his bed a night.

When he became 100% potty trained, Sam was able to pick out something he wanted. He picked a super soft super hero blanket. That is the item that he wants to sleep with and take on road trips. It is his favorite.

Sam wants to wear shorts all day - every day - even in cold weather. It has been interesting getting him pants during the cold days. He likes to get dressed himself. He loves dry fit clothes.

Sam has a sense of humor. He makes jokes all the time. He also has the best facial expressions. We are so blessed to have this little guy in our lives.

He is also a momma's boy...which melts my heart every day. :)

Happy 4th Birthday Samuel!!!
