The Birthday Boy!

Hunter is officially 5 years old! It has still not completely sunk in for me yet. We had a fun day together as a family yesterday. The boys chose their breakfasts and then when they were done Hunter opened his presents. The boys went off to play with Hunter's new Spiderman toys and then in the afternoon we watched How to Train Your Dragon. It was a really great day!

Hunter is my little helpful boy who is always wanting to please. He is a great joy in our family and I love that he is such a wonderful big brother. Yesterday morning he woke me up at 4am to see if it was time to get up. I walked him back to bed and as I was walking back into my room and saw that the clock said after 4, I laid in bed and remembered that 5 years ago I was up at 4am pacing the house waiting for my contractions to get 5 minutes apart so I could wake the rest of the house up. It was one of those happy warm thoughts for me and a really good way to start the day.

Opening some books....

he needed to know the title of each one.

Yea!!! A Spiderman shirt!

A Spiderman guy!

I love this look. Mom you already know what it is, duh!

And to go with the Spiderman theme.....this was his most wanted toy at Target. He was thrilled to have Spidermans vehicles, and he was one happy little boy for the day!
