Ryan couldn't wait to turn five and we couldn't wait to help him celebrate.
Of course now that he is five, he wants to turn six.
What a joy this boy is to have in our family.
He is funny and cracks us up. He looks up to his big brothers.
He loves school. He sounds out words to read and write.
He counts to 100 and counts backwards from 20.
He loves spoonfuls of peanut butter and glasses of strawberry milk.
He still throws fits and has problems listening.
He likes scratch backs and video games.
He loves legos, hero factory's, and nerf.
He loves being outside and looking for bugs.
Oh Ryan we love you so.
Candles that flames burn the same color, so cool!
Ryan loved all of his presents.
He shared so well with his brothers and let them build or play with whatever they wanted.
He laughed at the card we bought him, it was so fitting!
One of his favorite gifts was from Uncle Matt.
It's from Aunt Summer too but Uncle Matt did the shopping which was so obvious.
The biggest, baddest, coolest water gun he could find.
And then two teeny tiny water guns for the older boys, they didn't laugh but we did!
the girls
the guys
Ryan also got some new flip flops.
The kind without the strap in the back so he is learning how to walk in them.
It's a very funny thing to watch.
The weather, the food, the company, the laughter.
I love perfect days like this.
That last picture is just too cute!!
ReplyDeleteThat last pic just doesnt do it justice ... watching him walk in those was hil.ar.ious!
ReplyDeleteWe're looking forward to helping you celebrate ... welcome to 5!
Love the present from Uncle Matt! What a great idea for the youngest brother! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cutie! Looks like a lot of fun was had celebrating! B is wearing flip flops without straps for the first time this year too. He does pretty good but it definately slows him down when he tries to run (which isn't a bad thing!)
ReplyDeleteOh and where did you get those candles? Those are SO cool!!
