Sutton is Four!

Yesterday my sweet middle child turned four! It seems like it was just a short while ago that he was making his overly dramatic at-home entrance into the world, and now he's such a grown up big boy!

On Sunday we took the boys and their cousins to Chuck E. Cheese to celebrate. I didn't really take many pictures because it's tough to lug my huge camera around a place like that (thanks to Grandma and Grandpa's camera for this one picture!). They had a great time and Aunt Jessi even hit the ticket jackpot on several games, so everyone walked away with lots of little prizes.

My favorite part of the day was getting a chance to go into the Ticket Blaster machine with Sutton. It was SO much fun, but those little tickets are incredibly hard to grab!

Yesterday we opened presents at home (Again, I only got a few really awful pictures in the rush. Oops!). He got two Shake N' Go Crash Up cars, which I had to hunt high and low to find since they don't make them anymore. I really wanted to get these for him though since he only had two things on his birthday wishlist, and he had his heart set on these.

I wanted to get him something to represent his birthstone, but since his birthstone is diamonds I opted instead for a sparkly aurora borealis crystal. We can't wait for the sun to come back out so we can hang it up and make rainbows!

Grandma and Grandpa took us all out to dinner at Red Robin, and the boys shared a birthday sundae for dessert.

Last night at bedtime Sutton told me that he had the best birthday, and that "I very love my whole family." Thanks everyone for making him feel like the incredibly special little guy that he is! ♥
