Chuck E Cheese

For Ben's b-day party we celebrated at Chuck E Cheese with some of his friends. He had such a blast!  Here is a picture that we took at a little machine that cost 1 token.  It would have been better had it caught the boys smiling but I love it because it depicts exactly how much I love my boys and LOVE being a mom! oh fyi Ben wanted his brother to match him for his party.  I love how close they have become.

Before we left for Chuck E Cheese I was trying to get a picture of Ben... but he wanted to be the photographer instead. Not bad for a 4 year old egh!? Ha ha I love Landon's look like 'do I HAVE to take this picture...'

Landon of course got to the cake BEFORE I could cut it... he stuck his WHOLE arm in it...
The birthday cake that Ben choose out... would you expect anything different more perfect for him! :) The best part is that the cars were real and so he and Landon got a new car too!

Can I tell you how much I love the age 4! Happy Birthday Ben!!

Yesterday Ben turned 4!  This little guy has brought so much joy into our lives. I love being mom!  He is at such a fun age. He has turned into my best helper and loves to please me and be a big brother.  Here are a few pictures of how our little guy has changed through out the last 4 years. I love to sit and talk with him and hear his stories.  Happy Birthday we sure do love you!!!

'but we'll talk about that later k mommy'

'I need tight hugs and tight kisses'

'Im so SO BIG!'

'Once upon a time' he loves to tell stories...

'That was very heartfelt huh mommy' when he finishes his prayers

'Mommy your my bestest buddy'

My Baby is 2! Happy Birthday Landon we sure do love you!

In honor of our little guys birthday I thought I would share some of my favorite photos.  Landon is full of mischief and wants to do/and say everything brother does and says.  He loves to sing and can sing the whole abc's, twinkle twinkle little star, wheels on the bus, I love to see the temple and, I'm so glad when daddy comes home.  He LOVEs to jump anywhere anytime.  He is full of life and character and is so happy and funny all the time. WE love you little guy Happy Birthday!!!
