The Birthday Boy

How have 5 years passed since Luke was born.  It seems as though this is a huge milestone - he is no longer a baby, no longer a toddler, and no longer even a preschooler.  Now he's a boy.  A kid.  A kindergartener.  A 5 year old.  Hard to believe.

I have so much to say about Luke at 5 years old, but will save that for another post.  This one will be dedicated to his birthday, and the next to his party. 
He awoke to balloons covering the floor of his room.

He spent the majority of the day in his pjs ... his request!  In the afternoon, he had some time to play with Day while Mommy went to work.

We went out to dinner to celebrate.  Luke's restaurant requirements?  That they serve grilled cheese and dessert!

Then home for some present opening

I love this series of photos.  He has just opened the certificate that shows him what he will be getting in a few weeks from Day, Paw, Mommy, & Daddy

A lofted bed is on it's way for our boy who will soon need a desk to do homework at and who already could use some additional floor space of his own for playing.

Happy 5th Birthday to our amazing little boy!  Next up.... a robot party this weekend!!!
