Before I get to the weeks, exciting events, I need to start with this Boy's 5th birthday breakfast! We left earlier this week for DC (there were some festivities we wanted to participate in...) and our precious, sweet friends, the Walter's agreed to keep our babies for the 2 days we were to be gone. We were to leave NC that a.m. for DC, but not before we had some Birthday Pancakes! He was a real trooper - he didn't mind that his Mom & Dad were headed off on the 5th anniversary of his arrival into our world...As a matter of fact, that morning, I was trying to cuddle with him, whisper sweet birthday wishes to him, when he turned to me & not so sweetly said..."I'm ready for y'all to go!"
