Robbie's Birthday

My baby is FIVE! It was a party full of chaos, so naturally, the kids loved it! Rob basically sacrificed himself for their entertainment, but what are dads for, right? The pinata was even dangerous for him since it was storming and we couldn't hang it from the deck! So fun.




And now for the birthday interview:

"What is your favorite . . ."
Color: Blue
Food: Peanut butter and honey, I guess.
Drink: Milk
Dessert: Birthday cake
Game: Guess Who, Connect Four, and the Matching Game
Sport: Football
Friend: Carter, I guess
Movie: Kung Fu Panda 2
Book: The one that I find the tools (Some Fisher Price tool book)
Animal: Lion
Song: Hark the Harold Angels Sing and Angels We Have Heard on High
Toy: My Toothless (dragon)

What do you want to be when you grow up? "I want to be a basketball player."

If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go? "You know those Old McDonald's that have those playground things? I'd go to one of those."

"What's your favorite thing to do with . . ."
Daddy: Football
Mommy: I've never played basketball with you, but I think it'd be fun.
Ty: Frisbee
Jimmy: Just play with him.

Robbie is a genuinely kind person. He'll share his most treasured and kept-safe toys and treats. He even let Ty open some of his presents. He is responsible, quick to laugh, is compassionate, honest, and helpful. He is a perfect big brother and an example to Mom and Dad, too--not afraid to tell us what is right and wrong.

We love you, Robbie and are so happy you are part of our family!

Here are some pictures of him at preschool on his birthday:

Glad to see that you got a real pinata.
Can't believe that boy is five. Crazy.
