5 years ago...

Oh goodness, does 5 years ever go by too fast. Our little man is growing more every day, and it's so hard to remember when he was tiny - yet it feels like only moments ago.

We had a lovely day, presents after breakfast. Treasures unwrapped, and enjoyed. Including the much desired "switchers and connectors" for the train track. (thank you toysrus online shopping!) A road trip to the big city (although, he's not too thrilled about being at Nanny's house without Nanny "you shouldn't be in people's houses when they aren't home"), with the requiste TimBits stop. A supper out, with a 'fancy, big-boy drink' that came with orange wedges and 3 cherries on top, AND the waitstaff singing him a personal birthday greeting. How can a boy not love that special day?

He is now sleeping off the sugar buzz from the drink and the whipped cream from the ice cream sundae he was given at dinner.

We forgot our camera connector, so no pics until we get home again. Instead, may I offer up some stats for your enjoyment.

Isaac
at birth - 8 lbs 5 oz, 22 inches long, blue eyes, no birthmarks, all fingers and toes
age 5 - 41 pounds, 42.5 inches tall, blue eyes, a good number of scars, one finger broken along the way.

We decided after a small falling mishap last week involving his face and a milk crate to delay his 5 year portraits until our next city visit. He's sporting a rather lovely yellow bruise across his right cheek. Until next time!
