Happy Birthday Jace!

Jacen is 4!

Yes, it looks like playdough in there, but it's actually cheesecake.  When I was making the batter I asked Aidan if he thought Jace (Jace was gone obviously) would like a different color than white.  He looked at me like I was cracked.  To put it in Jace's words, "Ya! O'course!"

It's sort of embarrassing I'm posting pics from Big Jud's yet again.  But of course Jace picked that as his special birthday lunch.  His daddy was participating in a nationwide service morning, so he left from that just a tad early to get there and enjoy the time with the boys before everyone else showed up.

 Damon was still mad he was put in the highchair.  He resents it, wanting to be in a regular chair like his brothers.

My sweet Aidan.  And my hair, that needs help from Shaleena and her scissors.

 Jace was actually embarrassed when we sang to him.

 Each boy ate every last bite.

Jace was rather sweet about it all.  He was so thrilled with his bright blue raspberry cheesecake, he wasn't in a hurry at all for the presents.  He gave several hugs and thank you's.

He immediately started building.

 This is the one I had to get from e-bay.  They love the tracks we already had so much, I'd been looking to add to the collection for years.  I finally found a set that was worth the money and effort to bid and all that for.

Jace is happy.

A bit about the birthday boy...

Jace's favorite color right now is red.  The more vivid, the better.

He still loves climbing and messes and scaring everyone with his daredevil thinking/actions.

He still has those super defined leg muscles you only see on major athletes similar to olympic gymnasts.

I don't think that will ever go away.

He loves playing outside, anything that makes his muscles work like lugging grocery bags or trying to pack Damon around, and hardly ever settles down.

Except when it comes to hugs and kisses... he'll stop anything for loves from his family.

He adores stuffed animals, and takes his favorites to bed every night, and then back out to the playroom every morning.  He has so many favorites this requires help.

Jace loves to be goofy, act things out, tease, annoy... he's always seeking attention in some way.
He will infuriate those around him one minute and induce belly laughing the next.
Even manages to do both at the same time, often.
We love our Jace!
