Peter's 4th Birthday!

Last year this time we celebrated Peter's 3rd birthday apart.  Not so this year.  We started with a birthday doughnut and ended in a nice warm tub with new tub toys.  And in between. . .lots of exciting things.  So here are some more photos to capture the joy of Peter's 4th birthday.

Peter's First Big Wheel on American Soil!  He loves "Cars" the movie and this thing has all the bells and whistles!


Of course, big brothers are always right there to help little brothers "figure out how to use the gift".



Thursday morning from 10am - 12 noon we play with the Ruoss kids.  They gave Peter some really cool bath toys because they know how much Peter loves playing in the bath tub.


Here's Peter playing with those toys!


Then we played. . .



Megan played too!



After nap time, we went to swim at the pool.  We were so happy!


Finally after supper, (and can those boys eat after a big day!) we gave Peter our card.  Just like in Hong Kong, Peter held onto the card, put it into his new big wheel and read it over and over again.


And of course, Eliot had to give Peter a sword and not just any sword but one to play with in the water.  He gave a full 10 minute demonstration of how to use it.  It was very funny.


Saturday, we will be heading to NJ to celebrate with our extended family.  Peter shares a birthday with his Aunt Connie and we will eat cake and laugh and love being together.  Then we will spend the night and visit our dear church family, Sovereign Grace Church in Marlton.  Our lives are SO rich.  We love celebrating everything that has to do with what God has done for us.  Precious moments that I hope you will enjoy.
