Happy Birthday James! He turned 5 last Wednesday!

This is James at 10 months wasn't he adorable!

This is James at 5 still completely adorable

James invited Ezra and Joshua to Bouncy Barn for his birthday. They had a great time wearing themselves out then they came to our house for cake and presents.

On his actual birthday we had beef stroganoff and dirt pudding (his favorites). He wanted the dirt pudding in something fun so I surprised him with putting it in a dog bowl and giving them bones to eat it with.

Who needs bones?

This is what he asked for from Josh and I - he loved how big the box was.

This is his Army face to go with his Black Hawk Army helicopter that is so big that action figures can fit into (that was his one desire).

We are having a good week. Josh is mostly recovered from surgery. I am feeling better and better emotionally and physically. The kids are being amazingly good, fun and helpful. Mallory is adjusting well and doing everything the way she is supposed to. We are blessed beyond belief!
