Anyway, as I mentioned, he's the Birthday Boy! Mr Nate turns 4 today! I can remember, like it was yesterday, what I was doing at this time 4 years ago today. Let's see..it's about 8:30 AM now, so that means I'd been having contractions for more than 4 hours already. Then 11 hours later (!), Nathaniel Edward joined our family. Nate was born on Sunday, July 16, 2006, 8 days PAST his due date. He was 7lb, 9oz and 24". He was stubborn when he was born (see how late he was?!) and he's stubborn now! Let's stroll down memory lane and take a gander at some pics of Mr Nate growing up.
Just a few days old here. Awww!
One of my very favoritest pics of my big boy. December 2006 - 5 months old
First birthday party - look at that sugar coma!
Look at all that blond hair! A little more than a year old.
He had such cute curls! July 2008 - 2 years old
The kid knows how to have fun! July 2009 - 3 years old
July 2010 - 4 years old
My handsome boy! Happy birthday, Monkey! :)
Through all the temper tantrums, screaming and yelling. Through all the bruises and scraped knees. You may be growing up and not "needing" me as much as you used to, but I love you more and more every day! Happy birthday, my dear, dear Monkeyboy.

I love this kid!!!!! Happy Birthday Nate dog!!!
Aww, such a cutie :) Hope you enjoy the movie!
LOvely picture progression. Totally made me smile and say "awwwwwww". I think you need to save the ones from his younger years (re: bday cake smeared face, and the one in the cow looking type outfit...cuz you are gonna need something to embarrass him with when he reaches dating age (long ways away, I know) but it doesn't hurt to plan ahead. LOL
8 days PAST his due date! You are a saint! What a gorgeous boy!
Happy Birthday my Mr. Natey!! It seems just like yesterday that I met you for the first time!
Sure wish we were there sharing his birthday with all of you!
Happy birthday to the boy, and boy, is that picture of the sugar coma priceless!
Thank you, everybody! I love my little man - as challenging as he can be at times. We had a good time with his cousins last night and now it's almost nap time (read: best time of the day).
LOVE this post!!! Such a cute little guy you've got! How to train your dragon was sooo cute huh!
