Happy Birthday Bauer

Bauer's birthday was on June 3. For the past several months he has told his Mom that he was going to have his birthday in Utah. Neither Cyrena or I thought it was going to happen. She found a great deal on line a few days after his birthday to fly here. So Bauer was almost right. Last Monday we celebrated Bauer's and Josh's birthdays together. Josh's is today and I will post about it on Monday after we got back from Riverton this weekend. For their birthdays we went to the Classic Fun Center. They have a bounce house and the kids all went wild. We had ten of the grandkids there. Bauer loved every minute of it running, climbing, screaming and sliding. None of the kids wanted to leave.

Bauer is getting to be a very big boy. He is such a big help to his mom. I still don't know how she dared to fly alone with three little boys. It is because she knew she could depend on Bauer to help her. When you tell Bauer to do something, he makes sure that his little brother Emmett fully understands. Bauer loves to play soccer and he had his last game this week. Again he has taught Emmett how to play. Being the oldest means extra responsibility and Bauer is doing a great job. He loves to play with his littlest brother Reece and takes few good care of him also.
Of course you can't come to Utah without spending time on the four-wheelers with Grandpa. Bauer learned how to drive one but not by his self. He also wanted to climb a mountain and was a little bit disappointed that I wouldn't climb to the top of one. He just didn't understand that it would take us a full day to do that. But we did climb a short distance. He was able to see a doe up close as she tried to jump a fence.
The best part of being here was to play with his cousins. Him and Josh are very close and love each other. It was touching to see them hug each other at the airport and tell each other good-bye. Thank goodness it won't be for very long since we will be seeing them again in October in Disneyland. Happy Birthday Bauer and we love you
