The Big Four

Our sweet, funny, clever baby boy turned 4 today. It's hard to believe since he often acts like he's 8. This smarty pants (or farty pants, as he says) cracks us up daily. The last 4 years have been amazing and we look forward to seeing what this next year brings.
Rather than an over-the-top birthday party, Braden suggested we just hang out at home...do we have an easy kid or what?! We did go out for a birthday dinner with Gramma and Papa.


Why down 1 drink at a time, when double-fisting it is much more efficient?!
We enjoyed walking around the lake & checking out the ducks and snapping turtles.
Braden loved goofing around with Gramma and Papa while enjoying perfect weather and beautiful surroundings.
Mr. Dramatic didn't want to take any more pictures...
But when you're this cute, the camera simply can't resist!
Braden showered the cake while desperately trying to blow out his candles....trick candles that is! I couldn't resist!
Braden quickly cleaned up the cake topper so he could play with it. It combined 2 of his favorite things...Spiderman on a quad.
Braden does most things quite enthusiastically...this triple chocolate fudge brownie cake amped him up more than he already was!
Cool guy cruised down the street on his new bike and showed it off to a few of our neighbors.
While riding his bike, he found a dollar bill in the street...the quad on top of his head? Just something he insisted on putting there if I was going to take a picture.
Braden was so delirious that he wanted me to take a picture of all of his new toys on his head....Here's Grave Digger rolling down his head in slow motion. Braden thought this was a cool trick!
