Our BIG boy Ash turned 4 yesterday.
He had a little friend party on Friday,
mostly his Joy School friends and a couple
from our neighborhood.
Mickey says (like simon says)
Meeska Mooska Mickey Mouse (duck duck goose)
toss the mouse
freeze dance w/mickey tunes
treasure hunt
Ame LOVES taking charge with these! Kaipo just likes to join in with the kids
what is a party without SNACKS
and fun drinks with colorful (Koolaid) ice cubes, in sprite of course cupcakes
She reminds me so much of my niece Ella.
Mickey Mouse Clubhouse while waiting for mom's to come.
eating chocolate pancakes,opening and playing with presents,
getting baskin robbins and eating out for Ash's birthday dinner.
Don't ask me WHY I don't have pictures of THIS day
(maybe it was the tiredness from my BUSY week of
working, teaching, organizing.... I just plum forgot).
But I think Ash had a great few days of celebration.
He sure is our special kid, who is growing and changing tons!
Boy does he have extreme attitude. One minute he is pleasant,
happy and oh soo sweet, the next he is throwing a fit about
anything and EVERYTHING! Here is a bit of
Ash at age 4:
*amazing with sign language (thanks signing time)
*writes and says letters & numbers, including his name & his siblings
*pretty incredible at basketball & golf (natural athlete)
*LOVES to play the Wii, computer and his new leapfrog explorer
*likes to sing (always asking to listen to music)
and can remember words to soo many songs
*is FINALLY starting to play well with his older brother
and they like to play legos & "make-believe" all sorts of things together
*super excited about his new BIG boy skooter
*is soo sweet and full of compliments all the time
for example: "mom, you look beautiful today" or
"Ame looks soo pretty", "Kaipo and dad are handsome"
he is definitely going to be my heart-breaker as he gets older!
We love Ash soo much. Can't even imagine our lives without
his sweetness and sometimes not soo sweet attitude.
He is constantly amazing us and cracking us up by the things
he says and does. He tries soo hard at everything, and always
does his very best! We couldn't be any prouder of our
