We've got a 4 year old!

 Tyson turned 4 a few weeks ago.  It seems so much older than 3.  Maybe because we are closer to school age and he is getting so much more independent.  Since his birthday was on a Sunday, we went celebrated the day before and let him choose his activity. He wanted to go to the children's museum here.  Last time we went there was a huge dinosaur exhibit which he loved, but they rotate the big exhibits out and instead there was a construction zone.  He was a little bummed at first but then jumped right in to play. Camille love it as well so it was a good family outing!

This picture makes me laugh because Tyson did not want to smile and Camille was just happy to be along. She loved her pink hat and would not take it off!
We stopped at Burger King on the way home and he got a crown which he called his birthday crown. When he woke up the next morning and I reminded him it was his birthday, he told me he needed to put his crown on and ran to find it and continued to wear it throughout the morning. We had to talk him out of wearing it to church. (love Camille's cheesy smile!)
He wore the bowtie he got for his Uncle's wedding and looked so cute!  When they sang to him in Primary, he got to play an instrument with the song. He chose a little drum that went around his neck.  The whole image still makes me giggle. This big kid, with a small drum around his neck, and a bowtie with a very serious face, just pounding away on his drum.  I'm glad I get to be in Primary so I didn't miss it!
Don't look to closely at the cake!  He saw a football cake at Costco that he wanted, but I was not going to buy a huge cake for just our family.  I convinced him to let me try to make a cake in the shape of a football and that seemed to work all right for him.
Happy Birthday Tyson! May all your 4 year old wishes come true!
