Brady’s 5?

 

Yes, apparently that’s what comes after 4.  But my goodness that sounds so old…and he’s still a baby!  Right?

Reality is my sweet baby is growing up!  He is such a fun loving, tender hearted little guy.  The love he has for his brother and sister is amazing.  He is so thoughtful, and still a bit mischievous, but I’m loving watching him grow up right before my eyes!

Brady wanted a star wars bowling party, so off to main event we went!

This is Brady waiting in line for one of those virtual rollercoaster things that puts you in a box and turns you upside down and sideways….he rode it twice…such a dare devil!

we won’t go into detail about how our air conditioner went out the night before his party and about how we had to check into a hotel to get ready and for nap time, but I will share this cute pic of me trying to get 3 kids and all our stuff to the car by myself!

That night, as we waited on our house to cool off, we had a family dinner at Gringo’s!  somehow the waiters found out it was Brady’s birthday so they sang to him! 

sister thought it was pretty funny!

The following Thursday, on his “actual” birthday we had the traditional waffles and singing in bed!

kaden helped himself!

still a little sleepy!

we opened a few presents!

ran through and tore down some of the streamers we put on his door!

opened one more present….……surprise, it’s Karsyn!

Then we headed to Sprinkles cupcakes.  Brady watched cupcake wars with me all the time and was so excited to be a “judge” and pick out his own cupcakes!!

Then we met Grandma in Kemah, rode some rides, a fun speed boat, and ate dinner at the aquarium!

Brady had a fun birthday week!!!  A great way to end our summer!  The summer we were ready to bid ado!
