Five years ago today, my first baby boy was born! We were not expecting him to come that day, but he had other plans! It was a scary night for us, but we ended up with a beautiful baby boy! For some reason, this birthday seems so significant to us. Five. That just sounds old. We are both so proud of the big boy Jackson has become. I love his gentle soul, his need for independence & alone time, and his sweet nature. He loves life & loves to play hard! He has been that way since the beginning. I do miss those early baby days, but have enjoyed the journey the last 5 years..He is our first, so all that he does is amazing!! We love you Jack Jack!!!!!
Nana sent Jack some surprises today! She first sent him the cookie boquet, which he just loved! (We all love..can't wait to sneak one!) She also sent him "5s" for his 5th birthday :) He carried his money around all morning! He had a lot of fun spending it on Monster Trucks tonight at Target!
Jack picked out cupcakes to take into his class. His main objective was finding the "kind of cupcakes with rings on them." Mission accomplished..super bowl ring cupcakes :)
Jack's teacher had a birthday crown for him to wear today!
The awesome sign Jack's teacher had waiting for him outside their classroom door!
I got to experience circle time at preschool...Four words: God Bless Preschool Teachers!!!!
When Daddy got home, he finally got to open his presents. He opened five presents tonight, in honor of his 5th birthday! He told me this was his "monster truck face" since that present was wrapped in a monster truck bag :)
I love it.."This is what I've always been wanting!" Wow, Mommy is psychic!!
Auntie Hali stole the show with a Handy Manny backpack & a new DS game: Phineas & Ferb--his favorite show right now :)
We went out to dinner at Chili's (Thanks for the gift card Uncle Josh!). They sang to Jack & he had an ice cream...Then we went on to Target to spend his "fives." He got 6 new monster trucks, a mosnter jam obstacle course, another DS game, and a Phineas & Ferb shirt :) He did well!!
Mommy & the birthday boy!!!!!!!!!!!
Daddy & the Colbsters...Colby kept saying all day, "NO! It Colby's birthday!!!"
