Happy 5th Birthday Charlie!!







Jimmy looks like he is screaming but he's actually laughing so hard at Mea swinging the light saber!





Thank you Scott for the gift...he absolutely LOVES it!!

















Happy Birthday Charlie! It seems like it was just yesterday I was posting about Charlie turning 4! I can't believe how fast this year has gone! We had a good day celebrating Charlie. The kids have been sick so we weren't able to have Charlie's friends over for a party like we had planned:(
Charlie was so joyful still and loved just that we made his day special! He woke me up this morning and said, "Mom, I'm 5 today!" Then he went in the bathroom and turned on the light and screamed to me, "Mom, I'm BIGGER!" He is so cute! I felt bad that he didn't get to have a party...He was so kind though and was so grateful all day. Gramma Dee-Dee and Papa sent him some money so Aaron and the kids and I all went to target and he got to pick out some toys. He was SO excited! Thanks Gramma Dee Dee and Papa! We Love you! Then he chose Fire House Subs for his B-day dinner(thank you Lord - Easy on me!) We ate there and then came home and did cake and ice cream. Then we smashed the Dinosaur Pinata! Then we played musical chairs! The kids had a blast! Charlie said, "Mommy, this was the best birthday EVER!" I was so happy. Just goes to show you that you don't always have to have a big bash...God gives us so many things to be grateful for. I am grateful for Charlie and how he is teaching me to be thankful in all circumstances! I love you to the moon and back Char Char!! Happy Birthday - YOU ARE TOO BIG!
