Robbie's 4th Birthday

Robbie turned 4 on Saturday!


We blew up some balloons...

Covered a good portion of the floor with bubble wrap (the checkerboard pattern are squares of bubble wrap)...

...and had a few friends over to pop balloons, stomp on bubble wrap, eat cake, and play games.

The friends brought presents, which are always lots of fun.

We found out that Robbie is really good at making stuff with Legos! He got the little instruction manual out & followed it until he made the picture on the box. He needed zero help from Mom.

That Robbie, he's a smart kid. We love him so much, and we're glad he had a fun birthday! A little about Robbie:

- He is very kind. He pays attention to how other people feel, and tries to make sure nobody feels bad.

- He loves to figure things out. Always wants to know how things work and what they do. He absolutely loves the show "How It's Made" and will pay close attention when it's on. He's been drawing a lot of factories lately.

- He has always loved animals and treated them well. Some of this he learned from his sister, but I think he's also just naturally drawn to them.

- He has a lot of faith. Often times if something is wrong or if someone is hurt, he will light up and say, "I know! We can ask Heavenly Father to help!" And then after the problem is resolved, he'll remember where the help came from.

- He is terribly funny! And he knows when to tease or turn on the charm.

- He adores his big sister. That probably comes easily because she's super nice to him. As parents, Rob and I love to see how he looks up to her.

We love you, Robbie!
