Joshua has been so, so, sooooo excited for his b-day. He has been counting down the days for at least a month. The night before his b-day he asked if he could stay up and help decorate. HA! I love that he knew he would wake up to decorations. When he came down in the morning and saw all the decorations he was so happy.
Joshua didn't want to wear his b-day boy button so Kayla proudly wore it for him.
Omah came over and enjoyed b-day pancakes with us and gave Joshua his presents.
Later that day we had to go to the store and pick up a few things. Joshua happened to find 4 pennies and thought it was so neat that he found 4 pennies on the day he turned four!
For dinner we went to Red Robin. On the way he asked how many more days until he turns 5. Then he asked how many more days until he turns 20. Funny boy, slow down. Let's just live in the moment.
We had a much better experience this year then we did for his 2nd b-day where he cried and tried to climb out of his high chair as fast as he could when they started singing happy b-day to him. This time around he loved it! He was singing and clapping the Red Robin b-day song all day and said he was going to sing along with them.
Singing to our big b-day boy.

When I asked what his favorite part of his b-day was he said the pancakes. Mine was when he found one of his presents from us. He got walkie talkies and we put one in a bag and hid it. Then Daniel went in another room and started saying his name through the walkie talkie. It was fun to see J trying to figure out what was going on.
B-days are just so much fun now that the kids are older and understand them. So far both Joshua and Kayla have enjoyed celebrating each others and haven't shown any signs of jealousy on their siblings day.
Stay turned for a post on his big b-day bash with friends.
