Ethan's Birthday

Ethan turned 5 on Wednesday.  5!!  We have a 5 year old!!  Okay, moving on now :).  He woke up ready to celebrate his birthday (but was a bit disappointed when I told him we had to wait until Daddy got home for presents).  We got past that and he enjoyed his annual birthday doughnut!

Happy Birthday sweet boy!

We did let him open one present before Daddy got home :).

Book, bubbles and a Ninja turtle sandwich keeper

After Daddy got home, we went straight in to open presents.  He had been waiting ALL day, after all!

Finally getting to the presents

Jared made a silly birthday hat out of an empty wrapping paper roll!  So, he's half birthday boy and half Ninja Turtle, Michelangelo.

He got a new scooter

It's MUCH faster than his old one ;)

We let him pick where we had dinner and he chose Culver's (not surprising, at all!).  They take care of him there for his birthday and he got a sundae with 2 toppings!!

Happy boy with chocolate ice cream, M&M's and Oreos!!

Can't leave her out!  Chocolate ice cream with sprinkles!

We are so proud of Ethan and how much he has grown up.  He is an active, sensitive, sports-loving, sweet boy!  We love you so much, Ethan!  Look how far you've come ;)!

Happy 5th Birthday!!

We are heading to Chicago this afternoon to take the kids to LegoLand!  He is so excited!  And I think his daddy is too ;)!  So, stay tuned for Chicago pictures after the weekend!
