I have a five-year-old!

Trey's birthday was Sunday, he's five now. I can hardly believe it. So here are five amazing things about Trey, and some pics from his birthday!

1. He is really mature and responsible for his age.
2. He is smart and loves to learn new things.
3. He has recently become very independent in all kinds of ways.
4. He is very creative.
5. He loves to make us laugh!

Here he is having his traditional birthday breakfast of ice cream


After lots of debate we decided to have the party at home and he wanted monkeys. I found a cute pin-the-monkey-in-the-palm-tree game and ordered it online only to find out at the last minute that they were out of stock. So I made my own. (Those are Trey's decorated coconuts on the side and his monkeys he brought down.)


Duck Duck Goose was a big hit!


He didn't even get mad at Roman for "helping" him blow out the candles. What a great big brother!
