Phillip's 5!

It doesn't seem quite fair all of my kid are growing too fast!

Phillip turned 5 on Saturday and somehow he seems to have aged over night, and grown a couple of inches. 

He is so excited to be five!

He's been planning his birthday forever.  Every couple of weeks he would tell me which cake he wanted and what presents he wanted for his birthday starting in about June.  

He's finally settled on a red cake.  Thankfully I have a friend who has a superb red velvet cake recipe who is going to make the actual cake (because she won't share the recipe) for me and then I'm going to decorate it like a mushroom with his beloved smurf toys on top.  Well, I'm not sure they are beloved yet those are a surprise for his birthday party.

He is having a combined party with his best friend Lexi who is 3 days older than him at a local gymnastics gym.  They have an awesome array of toys including bounce houses for the kids to play on.  

It's really hard to believe that he's so big!

I'm so grateful that he's ours!

Happy Birthday Phillip!
