Tomorrow is Aspen's 4th birthday. I can hardly believe he is 4 already. Time has gone so fast!
So this has really been more of a birthday week. Tuesday night was Aspen's party. We celebrated it here with both sides of the family and had so much fun. Aspen got tons of toys (of course) and has been busy playing with them all week. I will post pics of the party after I download them from the camera. Last night Mark took him shopping to pick out his birthday present from us (a starwars lego spaceship), and tomorrow we are having cinnamon rolls for breakfast in honor of his birthday.
This year I am working on establishing family traditions. For birthdays, I have decided to do cinnamon rolls for breakfast and homemade icecream cakes for the birthday cake.
Aspen is such a fun kid to have around. We are constantly laughing at what he says and how he thinks. Today he told me to "take a pill, mom" (forgot the "chill" part). He is very loving and affectionate. He tells me all the time how much he loves me, how pretty he thinks I am, and that I am his "best girl". He is alternately tough and testing then sweet, funny and teasing. The other day he tried to talk me into eating a dead bug that was floating in the bathtub. He told me that he would give me 46 candies if I ate it. Can you say little Mark?!! I just laughted.
Routine is important to him and he always likes to know what the "plan" is.
He loves bugs. He finds bugs all the time, puts them in his bug catcher and then plays with them until they die. We actually considered buying him a bug farm for his birthday, but are a little too worried about them all escaping......
Well Aspen, this is for you. I love you so much and God has a great plan for your life. I can't imagine my life without you.
