Happy 4th Birthday, Jared!

 That is right this long awaited birthday (which is really just a stepping stone to 5 in his mind) is here!

He woke up to this:

 Except Rosie was up in the middle of the night, so most of the balloons were on the floor.

 He got some presents:

 

Yeah, Sugar!

I love Jared at this age for so many reasons.

Sometimes he's a bit undressed. Either because of the sandbox, heat, lunch, or because I won't go upstairs to choose his clothes with him.

He is inquisitive and has the most interesting things to say (specialized post will be coming soon!)

He is so sweet and loving to me. He rubs my back when I have a headache and nearly always thanks me for making him dinner. He still cuddles on occasion and needs kisses when he is hurt.

Look at that face!

He is a budding photographer- he took several of the pictures in the previous post. And this is his first selfie.

 I love you, Jared!
