Jason is 5

Some things about Jason Ryan @ age 5:

• Jason is a great student.  His teacher has only the best things to say about him both academically and socially.
• Jason's "Lovey" is still his brown stuffed rabbit named Bunny.  He has a bunch of other stuffed animals on his bed too though, and his old baby blankey.
• Jason had his 1st sleepovers this year.  They have all been with Aunt Amy.  He does great and doesn't get homesick at all.
• Jason's favorite food is still chips and salsa, and he enjoys other hot and spicy foods/sauces.
• Jason is a true Gemeni like his Momma.  He can be THE sweetest little boy ever, but has his tantrum moments, and can go back and forth with ease.
• Jason still prefers warm milk to any other choice, but he warms it up on his own now.
• Jason, despite it being discouraged, says vagina all the time.  Can't wait for this phase to end!

Mike is 27!

I kind of packed Mike's birthday full of fun this year. We woke up and took the kids to Grandma's so we could go for a run in Delaware park. I was pretty sore so we went pretty slow the 1st 1.8 mile lap. Mike did a second lap alone though and it only took him 14 minutes! Pretty fast for his second run!

Then we had a picnic lunch at Grandma's and icecream cake (birthday boy's fav). After lunch we scrambled to get ready to meet up with some friends and Aunt Amy at Fantasy Island. We rode the big train around the park, and went in the wave pool for awhile. Colden is crazy. He just lays right down and lets the waves engulf him. No coughing or swollowing, just complete happiness.

Then we came home to get ready for phase three. Amy babysat while we went out to a nice dinner at Empire Grill (with Pat and Tori) and the to see Snowwhite and the Huntsman! It was a great day. The kids and I are so luckyand grateful to have Mike. It was fun spending his birthday with him for the 8th time :)
