In a flash, our oldest little man's birthday has come and gone.
In it's wake we have a bigger, stronger, more mature and responsible 5-year-old!!
We love you, our big boy M!!!!
Birthday celebrations included a moved-ahead preschool party on Friday because the kids had another snow day (and we were attempting to get it in before more snow hit...) My only comment: NEVER reduce the amount of time you have to prepare for a party. Just don't do it. You'll thank me. I'm glad to say that despite its rushed nature, the party went off without a hitch and thankfully was small enough to pull off! Many thanks to Mimi, who helped so much that morning--I wouldn't have been able to do it without her! Also funny to note: by the end of party, M started asking everyone to leave so that he could start playing with his new toys. LOVE the lack of a social filter on 5yos! lol.
Later, we ventured out in the crazy weather to Red Robin for a cozy dinner complete with birthday singing. M loved the singing, but plugged his ears so it wouldn't be overwhelming. Perfecto. He was a happy and loved boy. Now, onto year 6!

Happy 5th Birthday, M!!! I can hardly believe it. Seems like just yesterday you and MH were just on the verge of crawling in South Bend. You were such a little guy...can't believe how big you are now. We love you.
So cute! Love the cake!!!!
Happy Birthday big boy M! Just like Carolina Girl said, I can remember the day you were born, just like it was yesterday. We are so proud of you and how much you have grown up. You are a great big brother to your little brothers and will be to your little sister. Keep it up, buddy!
