Happy Birthday, Colson!

5 years old!
How can that be?
We are so excited to be wishing Colson a Happy 5th Birthday today!

Colson has been excited about his birthday for some time.  He's asked about it for a few months. We've counted down the days.  I love the excitement!

Today we got to celebrate Colson in an extra special way.  Today was his preschool field trip to the Children's Museum.  So I took the day off and got to spend it with Colson.  We all got to sleep in a bit.  I made Colson a big Number 5 pancake for breakfast!  Colson and I had a great ride to the museum and Colson enjoyed running around with his friend Preston.  They played with about everything there was and then didn't want to leave when it was time to go!  After the field trip, Colson chose to go out to lunch at the new Denny's in Bonney Lake.  Chris met us there and we all had a yummy lunch out in honor of Colson!  Then Colson and I spent some time at home snuggling on the couch and just relaxing...being together.











It was a good day.

Colson has a huge personality.  He is a sweet, caring boy at school and a very good student.  He listens well and takes EVERYTHING in.  It's amazing how much he is learning each day.  At home, Colson can be sweet and caring, but his other side makes an appearance.  The side that is impatient, speaks his mind and wants his way, or else.  He is definitely a challenge for us at times!

Colson loves to be read to, still sleeps with his little, blue blanket and would play Minecraft forever if we let him.  He loves to eat donuts, enjoys watching Wallykazam, and is usually asleep between 7:30-7:45 pm each night.  He is a very early riser, often waking before anyone else, sometimes before 6:00 am.  Colson is learning a ton this year at school.  He loves math and has an amazing math mind. He enjoys singing, likes to narrate everything he does and colors great!

We could go on and on about this amazing kid!  We are so proud of him and are glad to call him 'ours.'

Enjoying every moment!
