Austin turns 4!

Austin's birthday wish list:

He wanted a car.  One that he could ride in.  Like daddy's.

And then when we told him that wasn't going to happen for a long time, he started making up new XBox games, "like Legos, but where you can run faster...called Faster Than Earth!"

I love this kid.

Here's a few things about him:

He knows he can't potty talk at the table, but he also can't go a half an hour without mentioning the word "poop", so he gets up from the table in the middle of his story so he can say "poop" a foot away.  And then he'll rejoin us.

I love the funny things he says, when he climbed into the car today, he scrunched up his nose and said, "Ugh.  It smells like stop signs in here."  Just a note, I have never seen him smell a stop sign.

He constantly plays with his tongue.  It's always hanging out.  But that has always been the case.

He also burps.  A lot.  And as soon as he is done burping, he points to the closet person to him and says, "That was you!"

He is all boy.  And a very sweet boy, too.  When he got his four-year-old shots, he was very brave, but wanted me to hug him.  He buried his face in my neck and said, "Mommy just hug me, it hurts so bad."  Thankfully his next set isn't until he's eleven, and I doubt he'll have the same reaction.

He wasn't even a little disappointed on his birthday when he didn't get a new car or a freshly programmed XBox game.

Happy Birthday buddy!
