Happy Birthday to the 4 year old who has our hearts

Happy 4th Birthday

Timmy!!!!

We love you!!!

 

Timmy has been really fun this year!  He is full of energy and humor.  He has us laughing a lot.  This has been a year of a lot of questions.  His latest question has been "Mommy, why do we go like this--(then blinks)"  I usually say something like our eyes need to get moisture or whatever.  Then I got smart and asked him.  It is because our eyes need a break!  Very smart answer.   

He loves to dance and sing and his favorite song in Tonight, tonight, there's a party on the rooftop, top of the world, tonight....  You can hear him trying to sing as loud as the girls when we turn up the songs in the car.  When he is on his feet and the music is playing, he is usually dancing... this usually requires him trying to spin around on his back, or doing some jumping over his hand on the ground.  He actually has some really good dance moves.  

He also likes to fight the bad guys, and apparently he thinks that is what his daddy does all day.  One day he said, "Why can't the bad guys just all kill each other and then daddy can stay home with us?"  Good question.  Good thing we have a great daddy to take care of those bad guys!  

Some other things Timmy loves are:

Star wars (this is encouraged by daddy and Lisi, since they share the same love) Yoda is his favorite

His green shoes  (at one point he loved them more than his mom and dad... now he loves them the same)

Hanging out with his mom (he has had some anxiety about mom leaving him with other people... now that he is 4, he says he thinks he can handle going to preschool by himself... cross your fingers)

Writing his name

Telling us all the letters he sees... this is fun most of the time :-)

Super heroes-- he likes to be the superheroes and talk about them...

eating ham-- his favorite preparation is flying saucers (Timmy safe cheese between 2 pieces of ham)

being a ham

penguins

Every color but mostly red, yellow, green, and orange

playdates at his house

mom and dad's primary class

building with legos

climbing everything

helping mom cook

playing his leapster or computer games

making everyone swoon and try to arrange future marriages (apparently he has beautiful eyes)

taking care of babies

This year he has grown up a lot, and we have enjoyed watching him-- although we will miss him being our baby.  We adore this little man, and we are happy he is part of our family!
