BRINGING UP BOYS!: Happy 4th Birthday John Christian!!

I cannot believe John Christian is 4! I have tons of photos uploaded from the past few weeks to include some with Zach. He came home last Saturday night!! I will be updated very soon, but in the meantime wanted to tell John Christian we love him so much! The past 4 years have been amazing!!

John Christian got an early morning call from Grandma Dot.

John Christian wanted a Monster Truck Cake. I couldn't find one anywhere! So, I asked the lady at TCBY to make a cake with blue icing (his favorite color) and to make a road on it. I then went to Walmart where I found some little trucks and made my own Monster Truck Cake. He absolutely loved it and so did the teachers and children!

I took these photos from a window inside the school. It was fun to watch him try and accomplish walking across this balance bar. I did however get really mad when I saw a little boy walk up to him and push him off for no reason at all. I became a super protective mom and told the teacher who happened to walk by me inside. No wonder he doesn't like school! He's come home with a black eye and then a child pushes him off the balance bar into the dirt on his birthday for no reason at all. Yuck! The teacher told me they had issues with that particular child earlier in the day and she was glad I saw him and told her. Still, getting pushed on your birthday is not a nice way to start out the day!

At first John Christian didn't notice that I was in the classroom.

Then, he noticed me!

A little boy blew out his candle and we had to start again. He was most upset about this.

I wish I knew the names of the little ones in John Christian's class, but we haven't been there long enough to figure it all out yet.

After school we picked up lunch from Burger King and headed over to the park to play with Margaret!
