4 Years Old!
2013 went by in a flash! Strange how the addition of a baby brother led to a precipitous decline in blog posts! Perhaps this is the cause for your, uh, period of getting used to being buddies with Basil. But you are getting there! Your last night as a 3 year old ended by being sent to bed early for a body slam of him, but your first day as a 4 year old saw a new spirit of brotherhood!
We returned from St. Louis after New Year's with many great memories - and great gifts, like the Snow Man Kit from Aunt Christine. You used it to build "Leaf Man" in St. Louis but then put it to classic use on our arrival in South Bend to a Winter Blizzard!
January 9, 2014 also brought a 4th Birthday Celebration at home, with a very special gift from mama- your own UKILELE! You love it, and put it to good use right away with a concert starring you and Godmama Kathy.
And let's not forget that you also began life as a 4 year old with your first experience on skates! An a momentous one it was, just after watching dad in the famed IceBreaker Hockey Tournament - Over 40 Division. For the first time ever, dad emerged as a champion of the tourney. And you enjoyed your moments skating on the ice after the game... of course most enjoyable for you was watching the Zamboni, but you did just fine with the skates--a gift to you from Uncle Greg.
And 2014 began as a great year of friendship. Your pal Amelia Albarran came over with her mom and dad for a birthday meal... they brought yummy cupcakes, and you and Amelia played and played, using the playsilks Santa brought you to wrap presents and dress in various costumes. You two might even take a dance class together... or maybe you will join her in her Karate class, though mom is worried some of the moves might be used against your baby brother!
