My Baby is 5 YEARS OLD!

Where did time go? I swear it was yesterday that I was in the hospital awaiting our sweet little boys arrival, and now he is turning 5! I cannot believe how fast time flys!! I started making a slide show of his first 5 years last week and I cannot believe how much fun we have had with Micah in these past five years. He completely changed our lives and made us a family. I cannot imagine life without him.

I hear this song like everyday and it still brings tears to my eyes:
"you're gonna miss this,
you're gonna want this back,
you're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast!"

Well if it was possible to rewind time I would... I miss the days of Micah being a little baby, tottling around the house, sucking on his pacifier (mimi). I miss taking naps with him on the coach... I remember when I thought he would never be big enough to feed himself or do anything without my help... and slowly he has become more independent than I want him to be. I still try to get him dressed... I still want to hold him like he is a baby... and it is then that I realize how fast time goes. (yes I am crying!) So I figure I am going to look back at his 5 year old pictures and wish I could go back to these days ... so for now I am trying to enjoy every second I have with my kids because I swear I am going to wake up tomorrow and he will be leaving on his mission.... ( and I already miss him!)

Our Little cone head ... poor baby!

Thank goodness it went away in a few hours... I didn't know if I could make him wear a beanie in the 100 degree weather.

First Birthday Party!

TWO!

and Three...Oh boy he's FOUR!

and Now 5!!!(thanks Tennille for the family Pix!)

Micah, dad and I are so proud of the boy you have become! You are a wonderful big brother and a good example to your friends. I am proud to be your mom! We love you!
