He is 4

Thomas' birthday landed on the day that my parents flew into Peru.  We met them in Lima and had a mini celebration at the airport- then after we were rested and back in Arequipa did a little more.  He wanted a Dinosaur party- so we did what we could to have one! After visiting the Dinosaur Park, we had dinner and a little party with some friends in Arequipa.

Huge Dino cookie!

We spent an afternoon at the Dinosaur Park in Arequipa

He is already talking about his next birthday- and wants to make sure that I get him "really cool" presents.  I love my T-man.  His imagination is incredible and he can play with ANYTHING- a fork, toothpick, twisted wire on the ground, ANYTHING.  This kiddo has a SWEET tooth and does not forget much.  He is persistent with what he wants and has a sensitive spirit.  He loves to play Peter Pan with Chad, Ella is his best friend and he still prefers me to anyone.  I am not sure how much longer that will be the case, so I do my best to enjoy it!  So glad he is ours-
