Birthday Boy

Paul awoke at 6:15 am, ready to open his presents. I have mixed feelings about his present enthusiasm this year. But hey, I guess that's the fun of being a kid, although sometimes it just seems like bad manners.
Anyway, Paul had a great day. He got lots of phone calls and thanks to everyone who made his day special. He played with everything he got and was very excited about his cake, which unfortunately almost toppled over (or blasted off we like to say). It snowed all morning and Jer came home early and took Paul sledding. The kid is a maniac on the sled and pushes it down the hill then runs and jumps onto it.
My mom had a hard time being away from him this year so here's a video for Grandma and Grandpa:

That's awesome! Boys and girls are so different by this age. We took Brooklyn sledding, and when we would get to the bottom of the hill, she would say, "Let's go home now." :)
