Evan is FOUR!

Pop-Pop and Evan at Grotto's for Evan's birthday dinner.
 Opening his first present on the floor at Grotto's.  :o)
 Evan's Batman cake! 
Four candles for a boy who's FOUR...  I can't believe it!
Cake and ice cream all around!!  :o)
 Some more presents with Leah, who is always the great unwrapping helper.
Ryan must have partied too hard the night before...  he did NOT want to get up the next morning! 
 That Saturday, I took the boys with Aunt Lina and Pop-Pop to Touch-a-Truck.  Ryan and Evan loved their hats, but we couldn't get Caden to put his on.  Silly boy!
 Looking like a big boy riding on the school bus. 
 Ryan taking the driver's seat.
 I think the boys may have just as much fun when the bounce house deflates... they pretended they were in jail, so they decided to lay down and rest since they couldn't get out. 
 Then Ryan's newest obession was born...  oven mitts, which he calls his "gwubs".  These are a daily staple, and he loves to give everyone very special "gwub hugs".  So sweet!  :o)

 My little Blue Hen boys!
Construction boys too - working on the tent. 
Ryan pushing Mommy on the spinning thing at the school play ground. 
Climbing dudes! 
 Boys prepping for this supposed harsh winter by helping with the log splitter.  Evan came prepared with his chain saw.  :o)
Jeonga and her apprentice helpers putting some minor touch ups on the play ground equipment at Pop-Pop's house. 
Ryan "ready!" for the day. 
 Evan enjoyed going to the Friday race at the "Monster Mile" again!
Evan loves his headphones! 
The steering wheel right out of the car... 
 Hanging out with Uncle Tim.
 Dad-Dad and Ev watching the race.
 While Ev was out enjoying the race, Ryan romped around the pumpkin patch.
Goober face! 
That Saturday evening, Kate enjoyed the fact that "Ryan loves me!"  Kate loved life as Ryan sat in her lap and she tended to him like a good momma.  :o)  
 Jack and Ryan enjoying the woods on Sunday morning.
Evan and Kate - October birthday buddies.
