5 ALIVE!


After literally months of counting down, Connor had his 5th birthday!! This is BIG news. I've been asked "Mom, how many more days 'til my birthday?" multiple times a week for...well, I believe my first answer to this question was "94." Needless to say, all of us were thrilled for this anxious kid when yesterday FINALLY arrived!


One of our birthday traditions is the kids waking up to a birthday balloon from their Dad. Connor calls his "my friend 5". And yes, it's nearly as tall as he is.

Everybody! (Picture one more sitting with them!?)

Climbing on the snake at The Mayan--Connor's choice for dinner

Connor & his "Rocket" cake. I suspect this will be the only birthday where Little Einsteins & Bionicles will both make an appearance. He's right on the bridge between little & big. I'll hang onto little as long as I can...


Cake & presents in the 'Birthday Chair', another favorite tradition
