The Full High 5...

We have a 5 year old. How is it possible that he got so big?

We kicked off his day by our traditional number pancakes...and we even added sprinkles to the batter for a little extra birthday flair!

 

 

We gave him a bigger bike- he zooms up and down our lane. Back and forth. Over and over again.

 

 

 

He wanted a hunting cake. He has been planning how we would decorate his cake for months now. I think that is his favorite part! Once again, I realized how tricky cake decorating is...despite my lack of talent in this department- he loved it.

 

 

 

He also decided that he wanted to dress up in his camo since he was going to have a hunting cake and invited everyone to wear a costume to his little party. It made for fun pictures:)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We sure love this 5 year old...

Here are just 5 of the reasons:

1- He is very analytical. He always surprises me with what he can understand and figure out in that cute little head of his. From math to spelling to drawing...he is pretty sharp.

2- He wants to be just like his dad. He idolizes him. And they are best friends.

3- He isn't too big to give me hugs and let me cuddle with him every once in a while.

4- He wants to make the right choices. He tries really hard to be good- and he does a pretty spectacular job doing so!

5- He loves his family- he adores his little brother, he is kind and plays with his little sister and he is always coming up with plans for our extended family.

 

We love you BRIG!!!!
