Dear Reese ...

It's your favorite Aunt here ... Aunt Lindsey, of course.  I cannot believe you turned 4-years-old on Saturday!  From the moment you were born, I've loved you more than I knew was possible.   Here I am holding you for the first time.  You were the most beautiful, perfect baby I had ever laid eyes on.

I never knew when you were growing in your Mommy's belly that you would be the best thing that's ever happened to me. You were the happiest baby, always giggling and showing off your big blue eyes and presh dimples.  You totally should have been a Gerber baby and made your Aunt rich.  
You didn't like to sleep through the night though, which reminded me I was not ready for babies until at least I was 35. As time often does, it flew by.  Before we knew it, you were celebrating your 1st birthday in style as a pirate ...  Arghhhhh!

Then your 2nd ...


Your 3rd ...


And on Sunday, we celebrated your fourth at Chuck E Cheese aka your heaven. You were the most handsome little spidey we'd ever seen.  You played some football:

Played games with Daddy:

And Mommy lifted you up for all to see during your birthday song. 

You got really excited when your cake came out.  I know everyone really appreciated you licking it.   
Happy 4th Birthday to the the smartest, funniest, cutest and most perfect little boy!  Aunt Lindsey does have a heart, see?

XOXO,
Aunt Lindsey

    So so sweet! What a lucky boy to have such an awesome aunt in addition to having great parents :) Hope he realizes he hit the jackpot - bet he will when he gets over.

    You like that I'm stalking you from Germany? Haha, xoxo

    Awwww, happy birthday to the little guy!! He's seriously just so stinkin' adorable I can't get over it. Sounds like he has quite the personality too :)

    The close relationship you have with him is so heart-warming and inspiring. I hope to be close with my baby niece as she gets older. I love that you posted this :)
