Hunterbug turned 4 years old today-hooray! We celebrated yesterday. Friday night I had fun decorating his bedroom & the kitchen for when he woke up. He wanted donuts for breakfast & we obliged most willingly.
He opened his presents from Darlin, Pa, Aunt Jennie & us-thanks guys! Right after breakfast he wanted to watch his new movie 'Cars 2'. I don't think we've ever watched a movie as early as 8:30 in the morning before!
He wanted another race track cake & had the idea to put cones (chocolate chips) all around the track.
That afternoon/evening we had a couple of his friends over. He wanted banana pancakes for dinner (pancakes with strawberries, bananas & blueberries on top with a buttermilk syrup-delicious!) & to go to a jump house. It was a lot of fun.
Some of my favorite things about our Bug*He is one of the most affectionate kids-he likes to snuggle & he will come up to give me kisses & hugs randomly
*He loooooooves cars & plays with them constantly & he could never have too many to play with :) When we drive around town he's always pointing out 'friend' cars that he likes. Usually ones that look like race cars, are a cool color or have some kind of writing/pictures on it.
*He loves to help me cook in the kitchen, especially baking. I have to be careful to remember to always invite him to help me out or he'll get sad. He's quite adept at stirring slowly & filling the cups etc. with the ingredients all by himself.
*He has a snort laugh
*Running, racing & being chased make him the happiest boy
*I love his positive attitude-seems like everything is his 'fravwrit' color or food or whatever, everything we do is fun & he loves everything. I could learn a lot from him about attitude.
*He is kind of polar in his moods, when he's upset he can still throw the loudest, longest fit around but when he's happy he is really happy, goofy, silly & fun to be around.
*He is a great brother-he loves to wrestle/tickle Justin, snuggle with Emma & play the days away with Hyrum
*I love our quiet time each day while the babies nap. We play games, do his workbook, color, read books etc.
*And he likes to go to bed early :)
We love you Bug!

Happy Birthday Hunter! He is so sweet!! Your description of him reminds me so much of my Forrest-I think they would be kindred spirits if they could play together.
What a wonderful birthday party you planned! It sounds PERFECT for kids: cars movie, jumpy house, pancakes for dinner--life doesn't get any better for a little boy! How in the world is he 4?! :)
Happy Birthday sweet Hunter!! (Meg you need to quit calling the twins "the babies" at least by March;). Loved the days menu, Hunter obviously has quite the sweet tooth. We love you Hunter Bug!!
How fun. The cake is cute! Happy Birthday Hunter!
We might have the same child. Elliot's birthday is on Friday, and we are also going to a "jumpy jump" place for his birthday. And I think he would make the same expression while opening Cars 2.
