Here is Cole on his 5th birthday. He is opening up a present from Aunt Robin and Aunt Anne, Uncle Andy, and Justin.
It's Where the Wild Things Are and he now has a "Wild Thing"
He's so excited here!
He also got a 3$ gift card from Toys R Us courtesy of Jeoffery! Whoa! He was so excited! (Jeoffrey is the giraffe in all the Toys R Us commercials...)
Here's the party! We had a great time!!
Pinata time. Chris almost took a hit in the knees!
Carter pretending he is a "big boy!"
Chris and I gave Cole a new Raleigh bike. It's a bike he will use for a few years we hope! So the boys went out on a bike ride. We need to get a little carrier for Carter and then we can go as a family.
Back to the party!
This was after everyone had left and we were reading bed time stories...of course we read Where the Wild Things Are with the character. This is Cole's new favorite story among his favorite Dr. Seuss books. Carter was crawling around and knocked over Cole's toy hamper and then crawled inside!
Here he is laying on the toys...trying to find one...
I snatched a birthday hug and kiss.
Cole then insists on sleeping with all his new toys. Among the favorites are Ultra Man from Japan. Grandpa Bob actually ordered it FROM Japan so all the packaging was in Japanese. Very cool! The 2 Japanese monsters are sleeping next to Ultra Man too.
