Bridger had a birthday! Aaah... I have a four year old! I can hardly believe that he is so grown up! He has been waiting and waiting for this birthday. He says, "I will be four and then five!" He is such a nice boy. I love when I ask him to do something and he responds, "Sure I will!" He loves to play, and run, swim, watch movies, and read books. He often tells me he loves me. Everyone is always telling me how smart he is. He loves to learn. He loves when I tell him a scripture story or a fairy tale, and he says "tell me about it again mom!" Lately he has been telling me "You like boys best and I like girls best!" I guess he's gotten it all figured out ;).
The morning of his birthday he came down the stairs and found this terrifying scene:
The poor dinosaur broke out of his box, just to get eaten by the alligator and T-Rex.
Birthday Breakfast:
What a fun birthday for Bridger! The best part was having Grandpa, Grandma, and aunt Katey here! When he woke up the first thing he said was not: "Is it my birthday?" It was: "Is Grandma here?" The best part of his birthday really was having some of his very favorite people here.

Bridger loved opening his presents. He is a speed present opener! He'd rip one open, briefly view it, then tear into the next one...

It's a Crocodile Party!
We had seven of Bridger's cute little friends running around our house for his birthday party! He has been so excited about this! We got his invitations all ready to hand out, and I showed him all his friends names on each of the envelopes. He wanted one he could open too! Every day since Myra's birthday, he has asked if it is his birthday yet?? (Actually he's been asking that since November). Finally it is!
Nicolina made these fun crocodile tails! The kids loved them!

We partied, and partied and partied! He is such a good boy! I wanted him to have a great birthday! On Friday (his birthday), we played games and enjoyed our company, went swimming, opened presents, and had a family movie showing of "Peter Pan"! Saturday afternoon was his friend party. We had so many little friends running around! It was a small bit of chaos and a big chunk of fun! He was spoiled, but he deserved the spoiling! I hope he knows how much we love him!
