Happy 5th Birthday Isaiah!!!!!

So it's my precious Isaiah John's 5th birthday today! Ahhhh-I have a 5yr old! Isaiah is so excited that he is "a whole hand old." So here is a little update. He is getting taller by the day and he weighs 40lbs. He loves doing school, especially learning bible verses, and loves to play soccer. He is my little snuggle bug. He loves to tease his sister, help cook in the kitchen, and play outside with daddy! He makes the cutest expressions (his cheesy grin, his "bird wings", his 'i da know' look, and many more) and he uses his hands when he really wants to get his point accross. He is very into power rangers, mickey mouse, and board games. Each year gets more fun (and sometimes challenging) with my little guy. I am so blessed to have such a beautiful, kind, caring, and imaginative son. This morning we made a birthday cake and he was so excited. We planned a family party for Sunday, so more pics to come soon. For now this is him with his cake!




Of course, we had to take him to chuckie cheese to play games tonight. We first tried Peter Piper Pizza which is much better pizza than chuckie cheese, but they were having some sort of YAFL picture thingy, so it was pure caos! Anyway he had a blast playing games. Then we went to grammy's to open presents and blow out candles.

Hope had a blast on these little rides. She would just laugh and laugh!

Ready to play some games!

Blowin out the candles!

I love dominos!!!
