Monday, June 22, 2009, was Cooper's 4th Birthday! I can't believe my baby is growing soooo fast! This one was kind of hard for Mommy to swallow. I kept catching myself tear up at everything. Seems just like yesterday that he came into this world and now 4 years have flown by. It is so true, "Don't Blink" because time is gone before you know it!
On his actual birthday, I gave him one of his presents early that day.... a Slip-n-Slide. Luke & him played outside all afternoon on the slip n slide and pool. Then they decided it would be fun to play trucks in the mud in their wet bathing suits. What a mess...but I didn't mind. It was fun to watch them be little boys!
I cooked him a birthday meal. He picked out what he wanted.... Meatloaf, Mashed Potatoes, Squash Casserole, Fresh Okra, and Rolls. I also made him a 3 Layered Birthday Cake with Chocolate Frosting and Sprinkles. Kenley picked up some Vanilla Ice Cream and Gigi & Pappy brought some Ice Cream Cupcakes from Maggie Moo's. We just had a simple little get together that night with our family, Gigi & Pappy, Big John & GranJan & Pepa. It was a fun night and he loved his gifts. Even Luke got a gift from Gigi & Pappy. (They have learned if you get one a "truck" toy, you better get the other one one too!)
Happy Birthday Little Man....We love you more than you will ever know!!!
Happy Birthday! It does fly by waaaaay to fast and I've heard it gets faster when they start school!
