Happy 4th Birthday, Ben!

Benny turned four years old today!  Wow!  He was so excited for his birthday, although Emma was just as excited as he was.  They both raced around the house yelling ‘Happy Birthday!” 

I attempted to make a ‘Lego’ cake for his birthday cake this year.  I wasn’t happy with it, but he was thrilled – so that’s all that matters!

We had my parents, Lennard’s dad and my sister, Rachel, and her family over for dinner.  I made a big lasagna, a caesar salad and garlic bread.  Simple, but delicious!

Ben was thrilled with his presents.  He got lots of Lego to build, some puzzles, pajamas and airplanes.  What more could a four year old boy ask for?!

The second that he could, the Lego came out and Lennard started building… with help!  Ben was so excited to build a bucket truck (just like daddy’s!).  He also got an airplane, ambulance, fire truck, etc.

It’s been such a fun day.  Every meal was a ‘birthday’ breakfast, a ‘birthday’ lunch and a ‘birthday’ dinner.  As we were eating dinner Ben reached over, patted my hand and said, “This is the best meal ever!”  We sure love you buddy-boy.
