the big "4"

Now that Zach is 4 he feels like the biggest kid around.  It has been funny to see him really "get" what is going on around him.  He is a funny kid.  He needs someone to constantly play with him.  He is so "bored" when everyone is at school.  He is definitely the baby of the family.  He thinks it "no fair" when some one gets something and he doesn't.  His favorite place to go is Walmart.  He always needs to know if the store we are at has toys.  He does say the funniest things.  In fact yesterday his primary teacher showed a picture of a little boy getting baptized and she asked where the children thought the little boy was and Zach said "in the hot tub".  Oh he is a funny one!

party favors--eye patch, earing, gold coins, rollos and gummy shark

  So we kept his party small.  Very unlike me to have a small group for a birthday party.  I think I am getting old and tired.  Ha Ha.  We took two of his friends, Matthew and Rosie to Pirate Island Pizza.  I did it on a Monday in the middle of the day and it was perfect because there was no one there.  This was his first "friend' birthday and two extra kids was just right!

Zach was lucky to have his actual birthday on a day he goes to school so we took circus animal cookies for his friends and made a fun circus poster to show everyone--because you know life with Zach is like a circus--a little crazy and a whole lot of fun!

here we go round the birthday boy!

treat for school friends

Love you Zach!  Happy Birthday!
