Ryan turns 4!!

I posted somewhere that my "strong willed, independent, high spirited boy turned 4!" He is TRULY all of these things. He is fiercely independent.  His personality has really started to show in the last year. He gives the best hugs and squeezes and then can give you a mean stare down for asking a question the next minute. 

At four years old, Ryan loves: his big brother (sometimes his little), puzzles, cars and hot wheels race tracks, fruit, meat, anything you are eating, Berenstein Bears, Subway Surfer and Tangrams on the iPad, his scooter, boardgames, Jake shows, telling stories and the playground.

We started the morning with a present at the foot of his bed. He got Ninjago sheets! So exciting:)

                                      Birthday pancakes

 After school he had six friends come over for a Ninjago party. There were a bunch of crazy boys running around the apartment!

 We tried to play pin the eyes on Kai (which we borrowed from a friend, but only a few kids were interested!)

                                         Someone was ready to party

He was not so excited about going to the doctor for his checkup. We did find out he had strep though and probably has for weeks:) Yay for small apartments and wintertime!

At Ryan's 4 year check up he was 33lbs and 39.5inches. On the small size, but keeping with his trajectory. Where are the years going?! And is he losing his chubby cheeks?!? AHHHHH
