Five Fingers.

Yup that's right our little man is now holding up all fingers on one hand! Brady turned 5 this past week and celebrated with a SpongeBob Squarepants water fiesta in the backyard! When I asked him if he felt different now that he is five, he replied "Totally". And in an attempt to make sure he will stay my cuddly snuggle bugs I also asked him if he will still cuddle with his mom now that he is five and he replied, "Mom I will even cuddle with you when I am a grown up" and as weird as that is to picture, I am not going to lie I kinda like the idea!

Happy Birthday to our not so little guy.....
Brady and his SpongeBob Cupcake Cake!
Brady anxiously awaiting for his friends to arrive.

It was a hot 90 degree humid day so we thought 200 water balloons should keep these kids occupied and cool all afternoon, what we didn't anticipate is that those 200 water balloons were thrown and popped in a mater of 9 minutes.

Bikini Bottom......(that is where SpongeBob lives not the required attire!)

I had all these organized games to play and these kids could have cared less give them a foam sword, a pool, squirt guns, and a slip and slide and there was no organized games happening!

I even suggested some snacks and all I heard "Nope Mom, I just want to run and be crazy" and so he did......

Chris somehow became the main target amongst the water games, he was the silly one that showed up in his swimsuit, silly boy.



Brady Bugs getting Dad!
Maxx and Brady getting tricky with their attacks....

Dad getting the last laugh......

There were lots of these diving rolls in and out of the pool while imitating some super hero...

Here I come to save the day.......

Brady and his Power Ranger Bud Max.

Four SpongeBobs coming at ya......


Brady's friends must know him well as he received all his favorites: Bakugun, Power Rangers, Beiber.....He was one lucky boy!

Ohhhhh ........Ahhhhhhhh........

Luckily enough he got his number one item on his wish list, yup that is right it's a Justin Beiber doll, Never.Say.Never.

Another prized possession was his Megazord......

Finally he got a big boy bike (hopefully bigger soon as we loose the training wheels) and a new Captain America suit that he rode around the neighborhood for an hour like he had something to prove.



Brady we measured you tonight and you grew three inches from last July 11th, but in my mind you have grown leaps and bounds beyond those few inches. You have really come out of your shell and showed us your true colors with what you are capable of this past year. Your have become the family jokester and you keep us laughing all the time, even when you don't necessarily mean to! You still are one of the sweetest little things that I know and I hope you keep riding through life without a care in the world. We love you up to the moon and into outer space!
