Matthew's 4th birthday

My handsome boy turned four last week. He is the sweetest big brother. He is a great helper and keeps my on my toes.

He got Buzz Lightyear from Nana and Papa.

Along with a Lightning McQueen fishing pole. He is super excited to go fishing with daddy.

Aunt Becki and Uncle Nate gave him a remote control RC.

Aunt Tiffany and Uncle Chris gave him a couple of little remote control Cars with some accessories (sorry Tiff, I couldn't figure out how to describe them :( ).

A big cheeser for mom.

He wanted a truck cake. My decorating skills are really sub-par, but he seemed happy with the outcome. He supervised the paint job and the other colors are cargo.
This progression cracks me up-here he is smiling and cute . . . .

now he's being a little bashful . . . .

and finally totally hiding his face. This is so descriptive of how he is. He goes from social butterfly to a mute in no time. But it's okay, he's four and he's cute.


Mommy and Daddy got him a swing set (thanks to our friends). We spent most of Saturday putting it up and he loves it. I have spent at least an hour, sometimes more and even in the rain, swinging with him.


Happy birthday Matty!
