Eli Turns One year Older.

And tougher too!

Eli turned 4. Why is it that with every birthday, of every child I think - can this be truly happening? How did you get this big? And This old? The truth is, we can't control time. And its been an awesome 4 years.


Eli wanted to celebrate with friends and super heros. Thanks to my Sister in Law Tia, we were able to have an awesome party! And because she found THIS website, I had to do no planning. Though, I did find ways to do everything at a cheaper level. 


We created a "Super Hero Academy" and played all sort of games, that helped train the kids to become the best super heros on the planet! They all LOVED it. 

They vaporized villains,  walked over lava pits, leaped buildings in a single bound, braved their way into a bat cave and more! 
This was "Mighty Muscles".  

Can you believe that our sweet, preemie baby has become so big, and so strong?
So strong in fact that he is the real Batman. .... or the real Super Man... or the real Green Lantern.
 it depends on the day, but you get the picture. 

He also started preschool at the YMCA and loves it. 

When its cold outside, he wants a blanket. 
When its time to eat, he wants peanut butter or crackers.
When its time to play he plays super heros, swords, or baseball, or foot ball. 
When its time to read its truck books, or animals.

He is soooo much like his daddy was when he was little. (from what I have heard). 

He is smart, and kind and still the clown of the family, obedient,  full of faith, and sweet to his brother and sister and friends. 

We love you Eli. Happy Birthday!
