happy birthday Chase-man!!

I can hardly believe that my sweet and loving little Chase-man is five. I mean, he is our big and responsible and independent little boy, but five just seems so old for him to be. It seriously feels like just a couple years ago I was loving on this new bundle of joy in the hospital and thinking how wonderful our sweet family of four was. And now! Now he is this big brother and best friend to all of his siblings and he has the biggest and most caring heart! He has truly been a great blessing once he came into our family. I have been so lucky to get to watch him grow up and so honored to get to be his mother too.

love this awesome guy!

we decided to have a impromptu bbq with some of Chase's buddies and their families monday night. the weather and food were absolutely perfect and made us all excited for summer and summer bbq's! Chase had a really fun time decorating his cake with some of the new legos he got for his birthday! he absolutely loved this cake! 

  tuesday was his real birthday and so he woke up to the tradition of a million balloons and constant birthday singing from his family. he loved it!

  we spent most of the birthday morning playing with all of the fun and new toys he got from his little party and then lunch at his favorite place, McDondalds.

  love his little chocolate milk-stache ;) after school we quickly ate dinner and took the kids to see the movie Rio 2. Chase just loves the first movie so he was so excited when we told him we were going to see the second for birthday. However, we sadly made the mistake of going to the 3D movie and that was not the brightest idea for little kids. it's just too long to wear those glasses but they all did amazing and we were able to stay till the end!

  time for birthday cupcakes and presents!!! 

  Happy birthday to our sweet sweet Chase! 

He is our sensitive one, our independent one, and the one who is constantly thinking of others. He loves all things superheros, star wars or ninja turtles but will gladly watch a mickey mouse clubhouse or strawberry shortcake to make his siblings happy. he loves all sports and his a true broncos fan(and kansas city chiefs fan) and will gladly play ball with you all night long. he is our social one with play dates and friends galore but definitely loves the company of his little sister too. I love our lazy mornings of cuddling on the couch and discussing our plans for the day. I truly love this amazing little five year old of mine. he is truly a special gift to us!
