Joy

Joshua is usually VERY camera shy, especially when he KNOWS the camera is on him but the other day at the park he was carefree and full of such joy and laughter that I was literally laughing like crazy at how silly and happy he was. He actually ASKED me to take his pictures :) Miss Shelley may be slightly jealous of the giggles and smiles I got...check it out!!

Laughter

Pure joy

This is his "cheese face"

What??

Silly Face

I love this kid!!

And Joshua's "I'm mad" face
Isn't he just too cute? I love that he allowed me to capture so many pictures of his many faces and silly expressions! I love this kid!! I just can't believe he is already 4 years old!

Joshua Turns 4

Joshua has waited for this birthday more than any other one so far. Last summer we watched his cousins play tee ball and baseball and Joshua was SO intrigued. We told him that he had to be 4 years old before he could play and he just couldn't wait for March to roll around. We heard about teeball and baseball all winter-it was so sweet!! I can't believe how big he's gotten.

Last November, when Madelynn turned 2, Joshua picked his birthday party theme and has NEVER changed his mind. He stuck with Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and the party turned out great!! Here are a few of the decorations:

Joshua was able to celebrate with cake and ice cream,

lots of family, and presents

...what better way to spend your birthday??

Oh and no birthday party would be complete without a little tea :)

Thanks to all who came out to celebrate and for all of you sharing in our celebration through this blog :)

I just can't resist a change to get snuggles :)
