The Birthday Boy

Brian's 4th birthday was on Sunday, and it was a good day. He was very sweet -- saying that his new favorite number was 4; that his cake was "humongous good"; telling me, "I have a wonderful birthday" in between yawns at bedtime.

Brian is crazy about basketball (brought on more by High School Musical than the Celtics, although he does like them) and he wanted a basketball cake. Here he is, above, with his cake. Note the balloon in the background.

He's my grown-up boy in so many ways, yet my little guy, too. He still loves his teddy bear, Kaloo, but sometimes wants him to sleep on the shelf next to his bed instead of in the bed with him. He is starting to want to do big kid things, like ride a bike. He's been asking to do arts and crafts lately. He loves to play baseball.
Brian's dance recital is this coming Saturday, followed by a birthday/recital party at our house in the afternoon. It will be a Brian-filled day. A good kind of day!
