Wednesday was Henry's 5th birthday! I cannot believe it's been five years since he was born. From so tiny to such a big little kid now. He has really taken to heart the whole idea of becoming a big kid and has grown in leaps and bounds in the last week simply by deciding he is now old enough to do certain things. Two of the most impressive things he is now doing is that he has decided to ride his pedal bike (no training wheels) and is doing so incredibly well; and he has decided he does not need to wear Pull-Ups at night any more (also successful). He is so funny and smart and observant and I just love being with him. I am really going to miss having him around all day when he goes to Kindergarten all day next year.
On Wednesday we had family over for his birthday. He's also going to have a "kid's" party next week at Pump It Up. Since his birthday fell during Spring Break we decided to wait to have his friend party until after school was back in session so that hopefully all his friends can come. Of course he wanted a Star Wars themed party so I made him a Star Wars #5 shirt and Mom made his cake which we decorated with Star Wars figures.
On Wednesday morning Henry woke up to find the living room covered in number 5s and his big present from us waiting for him (a Bat Cave toy he's been wanting since Christmas!). Then his best buddy from school came over to play and have lunch with him. Finally that evening it was time for his party. He had a great day and is so lucky to have so many wonderful people in his life that love him so much!
Happy Birthday, Henry!
