Time to Celebrate!


We had fun celebrating our little Luke's birthday today. We started the day with donuts for breakfast (that may have been more for mom and dad than the boys) - yummy! Then after Luke woke up from his nap we had our neighbors over for cake and some play time. Luke also enjoyed getting some new toys today...and then constantly defending them all afternoon. Blake was having a little difficulty understanding why he couldn't be in control of Luke's new things and seemed to have trouble remembering that he refuses to let Luke play with any of his new birthday toys. Sharing is always an opportunity in this house. So here are some shots from his big day. It was clear that he had a lot of fun and was such a cutie pie today!
The boys showing off the new lawn mower and wheel barrow that have turned into another "piano". This time I did almost buy 2 of each and then I thought, "why, what kid can push a lawn mower and a wheel barrow at the same time?" Well ours can. And one can even ride his 4-wheeler and carry a wheel barrow, a new lawn mower and the old lawn mower all at once if it means keeping it away from the intended recipient. As a matter of fact he just got out of bed to come downstairs and get them so he can sleep with them.

Luke putting his new bugs in his new bug keeper. He really liked this too.

Blake opening Luke's only wrapped present. It is this really cool bath toy that you put on the side of the tub and it has a motor and a spout so that you can have "running water" and not have to actually run the water. Our boys have always loved to fill cups and play with running water while in the tub so this little gadget is AWESOME! And we have already tried it out tonight and successfully had a bathtime without producing tears and tantrums when the faucet was turned off.
Hearing Happy Birthday sung to him by his friends Addison and Kennedy and getting ready to blow out his candle. He isn't used to being the center of attention. I'm glad he was today.

Licking his fingers after a quick icing taste test!

Sneaking a finger or two into the icing.

Blowing out his candle...he really did it all by himself!

Good job Luke!!

Sad that Mommy took the candle away.

Trying to sneak a kiss from Addison...good thing Kennedy wasn't looking!

Thinking "I can't believe they actually gave me this big of a piece!"

Yummy!!
