Yep, today is my big boy's 5th birthday. I really can't believe it. His arrival was so dramatic and so memorable, that it seems impossible that he has been around for five long years.
But, here we are: 5 years into parenting and getting to know this unique little creature we've been given.
So, without further delay, here are the traditional set of bowl-photos with, of course, this year's new additions.
The famous first shot: one week old
One year old
Two years old
3 years old
4 years old
And, presenting!, fresh from the press, 5 YEARS OLD!
Ah! A new pose for a new year. My heart was in my throat as I silently wished him not to drop it. Chris declares that one day this bowl will break during our shenanigan-filled photo shoots. I hope he's wrong.
Anyway, I'm totally beat after a wonderful and busy birthday party for the boys this afternoon. (Might as well celebrate Sam this week too, right?!) Many photos to post from that, and from the boy-cousin's visit from Ottawa this weekend. A great time, but now I must have a tiny bit of recovery.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
Happy 5th, Charley!

Second one from bottom is my fave. Sooo naughty and scampy! I love these pictures. Cannot BELIEVE it was five years ago!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, sweet, handsome boy! I CANNOT believe he's FIVE. Makes me feel very old, and that our time at Mothercraft was a lifetime ago. And congratulations on five years of parenthood, Chris and Lee! I think you're two of the very best around.
ReplyDeleteTerrific tradition - hope the bowl doesn't break, it'll look great on him when he wears it on his 40th! Happy Birthday once again Charley.
