5 Years Old!



Today culminated a weekend-long celebration of Vincent's 5th birthday. It is quite amazing to think that our big boy arrived into this world 5 years ago. We had a lot of good old fashioned family time this weekend - time to look at old pictures together, to reflect on the family and friends that have created memories with us and continue to be such an important part of our lives, and time to do a whole lot of goofing off, with the sole purpose of just having fun. Vincent has grown into quite a character. He is a big time joker coupled with being a bit of a deep thinker, and we are always entertained by what thoughts he comes up with. Our favorite quote from today was, "These buggers taste yucky. Mom, how many calories are in buggers?", with a close second being, "Dad, your shirt is only one color (white). I think it needs some more colors." [as he proceeds to wipe his red velvet cake mustache all over my shirt!] Vincent and Julian are growing closer each day. In between the brotherly battles are some very loving moments where they play together and often gang up on us with some silly scheme they concocted. It has been heartwarming to see these two little munchkins grow up. It just happens too fast!!! Thanks to everyone for making these past five years of our lives so special.
