Sup is getting to the age where he really starts to get excited about events like birthdays and holidays. He couldn't wait until he turned four. To him his birthday just couldn't come soon enough.
As tradition I always like to get a birthday morning pictures. He knew it was his birthday and was waiting as patiently as a now four year can to get his birthday picture. It is kinda hard to see him growing up.
We had a dilemma on when we wanted to open presents but with Daddy's schedule and family in Germany we opened them before dinner. Sup was very good at opening each gift one by one and thanking each person for it.
We had skype on the computer so that some of our family watch Sup open his gifts, so you can see cousin Jared in the back on the computer :) This year with the trip to the aquarium we went with one gift for Sup to open on his birthday. Eric found this big stuffed alligator and thought it would be perfect for Sup. I didn't realize how big it was until he opened it. He was pretty impressed.
As with every birthday, they get to chose what they what to eat for dinner that day. I must say Sup was a pretty easy boy to please. He wanted hot dogs, cheese, pineapple, blueberries, and strawberries. I very easy meal for mommy to make! He also got his big blue birthday plate to put his special meal on. I think he was more excited about the plate then the food on it!
When it was time for bed he said that he "had the best birthday ever!!" So I would say we were pretty successful with making him a special day. Al (the giant alligator) goes everywhere with him and has to be on his bed with him every night. And I have to be sure to tuck both of them in at night, because we don't want Al getting cold ;)
Love the pictures! He is so cute and was so adorable on his birthday!
