Lordy Lordy Look Who's Four!

Last night Marcus and I went back four years ago and talked about everything that we were thinking, feeling and going through the night that God blessed us with our little Marcus Vincent Alan Sledge. I can't believe he is already four years old! I was playing with him and picked him up and said, "you were in my belly, how did you even fit in there?" and he said "then I said OUCH when I was born!" I said "you were just fine, it was mommy that was saying OUCH" and he just laughed at me. We also talked about how him and I were in a fight before he was even born because he didn't want to come out and meet his family when we were ready and even after the Dr.'s gave me medicine to help him be born, he still didn't want to grace us with his presence. I told him that I had threatened a spanking that day while he was still kicking around in my tummy at the hospital. :) Big Marcus :) reminded me that he still had mascara stains from me crying on his shirt from the first day we were supposed to go to the hospital to be induced but they were too full to admit me.

We had a good Birthday for him, Friday we went to chuck e cheese for pizza and he played games and ate pizza and cupcakes with his buddy Ethan and Saturday we had a family party at our house with Marcus' mom's homemade lasagna and we had more cupcakes. We even surprised him with a pinata, which he had been asking for the last month. Turned out to be a beautiful day on Saturday for his party and he thoroughly enjoyed himself! We got him a big boy bike, he got a new sweet nerf gun, toy box, race track and several other good presents! Thanks everyone for your help in making his Birthday special and good job decorating the dining room babe!
