Birthday Boy!

My baby celebrated his sixth birthday recently.  I can't believe he is six now!  He's such a joy.  He wasn't always a joy, honestly.   We had many tough times with this boy when he was a baby and younger.  He had acid reflux as a baby, was a terrible napper, threw many temper tantrums and seemed to cry all. the. time.  If you teased him or even looked at him the wrong way he would cry.  He's really started "growing up" tho.  He's so sweet, helpful, obedient, and fun!  He loves sports.... football, baseball, and basketball especially, loves playing with Rawley, teasing his sister is a favorite too, spending time with daddy, being outdoors, playing the Wii... 

I love that boy!!! 

Here are some pictures from his birthday party with our family:


ooohhh... a wallet with money in it from G & G!


our gift to him was a football set: helmet, pants and jersey...


His sweet sister gave him a book.  Hug!


Cake time!!!




After our birthday guests left... we had fun playing a little football.



Izzy took one of herself too....  love it!


Happy birthday to my favorite boy!  xoxo
