Another Milestone

Bridger turned 7 years old yesterday. It is hard to believe that we have a seven year old!! He was so cute this year. All he wanted for his birthday was to go to Leo's. Jay and I mowed lawns all day yesterday (that's right 32 lawns in all...so yes...all day) so we took him to Leo's tonight. It was pretty fun. He loved the arcade, and so did his dad!

All in all it was a fun night for all of us. Bridger has wanted to go there for so long and we kept putting it off, so he was so happy for today to arrive. He was such a trooper yesterday with us being gone mowing lawns. He was totally fine hanging out at Grandma's. When we got done mowing lawns Uncle Kirk and bought Chinese (one of Bridger's favorites) and a birthday cake so we had a little birthday dinner and cake with all of them. Bridger was thrilled, and I was glad that he has so many people that love him and wanted to make sure he got spoiled that day. We have a cake to fix for him too, but we will probably do it this weekend.

He even got a really fun present from his aunt Robin...she gave him a new cousin! She had baby boy #5 on his birthday. Bridger was pretty excited that they share a birthday. He also shares his birthday with his great grandpa Judy.

He is such a good little guy and we are so proud of him. He is a hard worker (when he chooses to be) and love to make people smile. He loves to talk and talk and talk and has a very hard time when we challenge him with the quiet game, it is pretty funny to watch him try to be quiet for very long! You would think with all his sisters that he would maybe be a little girly, but instead he has his sisters playing with guns and power rangers. He is such a good big brother and we are so proud of him and happy to have him in our family. He loves music and loves to dance (most of the time in just his undies). He is so smart and helpful too. Lots of times if I need to remember to do something I will tell him and sure enough he reminds me to get it done. We love him so much and wouldn't trade him for anything. We are so blessed to have him in our family and thrilled that our little girls have such a great big brother.

Here are a couple of our favorite pictures over the years.

This is one of our favorite pictures of Bridger and Macie. They were so cute together when they were little. They are still good friends and Macie falls apart every time her brother leaves to go play with a friend.

This was Bridger's favorite Halloween costume. He wore this just about every day for over a year. It was so cute on him!

I just had to add this picture in too....every time I turn my back the kids get into something. He just wanted to paint!!
