Happy 4th Birthday to Jaxon!

Four years ago I became a mother. It has been the most amazing four years of my life! Jaxon is very excited to be turning four! When he got up this morning he asked if he was bigger now, as in taller, so he stood up and I said, "Wow! You grew overnight!" He stomped his feet and said, "I can stomp like a 4yr old now, not a 3 yr old." Then he went potty and said, "I have to potty on a bigger toilet now that I am 4, not 3." When his dad walked into the living room Jaxon said, "Did I wake you up when I stomped, because I am big now that I am 4 and I stomp loud." We asked him what special breakfast he wanted and he picked a bowl of Fruit Loops without any milk, and when he started to eat he said to me, "I eat like a 4 yr old now instead of a 3 yr old!"

I am hoping to get more pictures up by the end of the day, but it may not get done because we have some celebrating to do! The plan for the day is to go to Jaxon's first p/t conference, make cupcakes with the big 4 yr old, open a couple of presents, and take Jaxon to dinner wherever he wants to go. As of last night, he wanted to go to Pizza Hut in Chadron.

A few more cute things Jaxon has said this morning:

"Mom, I love it when I am already four."
"I won't make a mess in my bedroom now that I am four."
"I can learn like you now that I am four."
"Hey Mom, do you think I am big enough to drive the van?"

In the collage I posted, Jaxon got to wear his Transformer shirt to school, which I don't normally allow. He also got some new Bumblebee play shoes that he insisted he wear to match the shirt. Of course he made me take a pic of those!
