Who's that big kid wailing on the "biassa"?Why do I get the sneaking suspicion that every year for the rest of my life, I'll be saying "gosh, the years go by so fast!"??? The saying is true and these kids are growing like little weeds right before our eyes! Alex turned 4 today and is so proud to tell people how old he is. He's been practicing dressing himself and we've been reinforcing to him that this is something four year olds do.
Alex is incredibly inquisitive and likes to play the alphabet game, where he names something that starts with "A", "B", etc. He loves kicking the ball outside and one day may make a great little soccer player. Digging in the dirt is something Alex loves to do too, and he encourages all the neighbor kids to join him in this favorite pasttime. He's a great dancer and all around smart cookie :) Alex loves to entertain Abby and I am convinced they will be best friends forever.
Here are some photos from Alex's birthday party tonight at Settler's Park in Plainfield. This is his favorite park because it has a lake, a bridge, a bike trail, and a cool playground area. He insisted that his "Diego" themed party include a pinata (a.k.a "biassa") so we obliged to this request.

Happy Birthday to Alex! It is so exciting that he is turning 4, but also hard to believe. I wish him and you many more happy birthdays together.
There's always a big kid at every party who just won't give up on the pinata.
