Davey Baby turns 5!

2 weeks:
8 months:

5 years:
He woke to find a fancy castle and knight set.


Then spent the day at his favorite place, Chuck E Cheese...

Things I never want to forget about 5 year old David:
  • I've been told on several occasions that David is "the coolest kid ever." He makes everyone laugh.
  • He's such a pleasant child. Until he's hungry. And then watch out.
  • The other day at Hires he was upset because we didn't order him a hot dog and a cheeseburger. We finally did and he ate both plus french fries plus part of a root beer float. The kid can pound it.
  • He's a very selfless child. He always lets Will have the first turn.
  • When he grows up he wants to be "an astronaut...no a hang glider...no a fireman." No doubt there will be adrenalin involved.
  • Preschool story that is sooo David: His teacher, Grandma Raynee, asked him to do an assignment that he didn't want to do. (Not unusual.) He turned to a friend and said, "The witch is making me color this." Raynee responded, "Oh David, it hurts my feelings when you call me a witch." Then he turned on the charm (with an innocent smile and big blue eyes)..."But Grandma Raynee, some witches are good witches."
  • He changes his clothes no less than 3 times/day.
  • He's very independent. He seldom asks for help with anything.

Love you Davey Baby!!!!

Cute David!! I was telling Matt last night that I couldn't be a worse aunt..not even calling him on his birthday. I'm so sorry about that. I've never heard that witch story!! The best thing I've ever heard. I love Davey and I hope you guys had a great day on Monday.
