Happy 4th Birthday Chance!

 Yesterday we celebrated Chance's 4th birthday.  I cant believe he is 4. Here he is the day he was born

At one year old

At two years old

At three years old

and now he is FOUR!

 He wanted his birthday to be celebrated at the amusement park here in town.  He had a blast and I think his friends did too. 

 Chance and his girlfriend, Madison.  Ok she is just a girl that is a friend.

 I think his uncle Dale and the other adults had the most fun riding the go carts. haha

 Brooks enjoyed watching the go carts and then he gave me this smile. ha!

On Friday the 17th, the day of his birthday - we sang and celebrated before we went to work with hats and a cinnamon roll (his request)

After school we let him and Brae ride their "rides" and be boys!

 This big boy watched the older boys be silly while wearing his daddy's oakleys. 

 Forever Friends

I love you Chance and your imagination.  You can write your name when you want to, today at the dr she asked you to draw a person and you drew a wonderful snowman.  :)  You know all your colors and pretty darn good at counting too.  You ask us a lot "What's his number?"  Meaning how old is someone or how much does something weigh or how tall is it.  Today at your 4 year check up you weigh 39 lbs and are 41 1/2 inches tall both in the 75th percentile.  You have 20/20 vision and your hearing is fantastic too.  You are one healthy boy.  You got two shots and were oh so not happy with us but you did great.  

Funny story really quick - on your birthday we went to eat at IHOP (you wanted pancakes) and the waitress came out after you had dinner and brought you a huge strawberry sundae and your first words were "what the heck, no candle?"  I laughed so hard - and now we all have to start watching what we say around you. :)  

Happy Birthday Sweet Boy!
