My Baby is 4...

Seriously...how did this happen? Wyatt will always be my baby, but he is getting too old to rock to sleep and too old for mid-day naps and too heavy to carry around on my hip all the time and too grown up to want me to hang out with his friends and too independent to really want me to do any of that stuff anymore. He is the funniest kid...Happy Birthday, Baby! We sure love your cute face!
Wyatt's day began with an early morning phone call from dad who was at a Venture Leadership overnighter with the Priests in the ward, then calls from grandmas and grandpas, then breakfast in bed (not such a healthy breakfast here, but something he'll eat), then making his turtle cake, out to get a bubble gum flavored birthday shake from Iceberg, off to Kenna's soccer game, a little afternoon nap in dad's arms during the game and finally home for his late night BBQ party with his friends...he always sees the older kids having late-nights and always asks when he can have his own. This was the perfect excuse for a late-night party of his own! Wyatt, Kaden, Dax, Stryder, Sam, Kyler, Kurtis and Wyatt W ran through an obstacle course, ate hot dogs and hamburgers, openened gifts, ate cake and ice cream and ended with popcorn and a old cartoon of Alvin and the Chipmunks...it was a success and only 2 kids fell asleep before it was time to take them home...I guess 9:00 is kind of late for 4 year olds!
