Simeon turned 4!

I’m way behind.  Not just here, but many, many places in my life.  Moving might have something to do with this.  But it also might just be that I don’t do enough around here.

So I didn’t get a post up on Sim’s birthday, but I want you to know:  He’s 4!  How on earth…?

Four years ago.

On his birthday.  This year, he wanted a dirt cake.  And he wanted gummy worms.  And he wanted to help.  That’s why he’s got the chocolate all over his face.

He also helped clean up before his birthday gathering.

It was a fairly small one – only three families.  It was tons of fun, though, and we were out on the deck and in the backyard until dark – as you can see.  Luckily we have spotlights out there!

Boy appropriate gifts!  A nerf gun!  Rules:  No shooting people.  No shooting in the house.  Time on the first day of ownership from wakeup until breaking both rules at once by shooting Dad in the house:  1.5 hours.  That’s pretty good!  Since then, he’s been much more careful.
