Our little guy is 4!

I never really understood when people would tell me "cherish the time when your children are young, b/c time really flies." I honestly couldn't fathom that when I was amidst all those middle of the night feedings, tantrums, potty training, terrible twos, etc.
Now it has hit me, I really see it now. Time has flown by, and I can hardly believe that our baby is 4 now. We were able to celebrate with Grammie, Pop, and Uncle Dan the weekend before with cake and presents. On his actual birthday, Ethan celebrated by choosing to go to Busch Gardens for the day. We told him that he could invite one friend to go along with our family, and said he only wanted to go with his brother, Sam. He just idolizes his brother right now and really wants to be with him constantly!
The first picture has a story. The short version...Mommy thought it would be a good idea for us all to go on a ride together. The log flume ride looked perfect. It was a super hot day, this would cool us off as we would get soaked at the bottom. Ethan was terrified and kept saying he wanted to get off, which obviously wasn't possible once we got on our way. Sam was concerned in the picture, although after the ride was over, he did say that it was the best ride ever! I will just say that Greg isn't a ride-goer. But, since it was a special day and a funny story later in life, we had to purchase the picture that they snap before you head down the drop.
