5 Years

Isaac turned 5 last week. It's hard to believe. We were still in Sandy at Pa and Grandma's house so we celebrated there. Here are a few pictures of the occasion. (The pictures are pretty bad. There is not a lot of light in the room and I'm not good at low light pictures at all.)

I love this one. It is classic Isaac right now, chapped lips, shirt on backwards with something Lego, Star Wars, or full of sugar (or all of the above) in his hands.

Here is his "cake" minus a few that had already been eaten. He requested cupcakes which didn't hurt my feelings at all.


We bought some big party poppers from Zurchers for like $1.50 and they were so awesome. They shot out a ton of confetti. It was really fun.

Isaac with his presents. I tried to take one after he opened them and he was not having it.

Isaac is such a great kid. He LOVES Keenyn. They will play together most of the day. A lot of that playing together is Isaac throwing Keenyn onto a mattress or the bean bag, or Isaac laying on him. (I had to veto Isaac throwing Keenyn off of my bed onto a mattress that was on the floor.)

He always wants to get Keenyn out of the crib when he wakes up from a nap. Isaac stands on the side of the crib, grabs under Keenyn's arms then leans back and falls off the side of the crib, leaning the crib over a little and they both fall out. No one has gotten hurt yet.

His favorite things are Legos, Star Wars and our neighbor Kalani. She is the only friend he wants to play with most of the time. He loves preschool and can't ever wait until the next time he gets to go.

He knows all of the letters and sounds they make and is starting to write and spell words. He does really well for the most part.

He still loves warm chocolate milk, especially when watching Curious George. (I showed him how to turn in on from the DVR. Not sure if that's a good thing or not.)

His favorite thing to say lately is "You're rude." which he says anytime you don't let him have his way. I'm rude most of the day as far as he's concerned.

He is still a hard worker and likes to work. He is usually happy to help and does work with a good attitude which I love.

He really is such a joy to have in our family and I'm so glad that I'm his mom.
