The Birthday Kids


My babies are getting older! Beau turned 5 years old on Wednesday, August 6th, and sister Brenley turned 6 months old. Gotta admit, I shed a tear. I cannot believe how fast the time has went. I can remember the day Beau was born like it was only yesterday. Those memories (while I was heavily drugged) will be forever etched in my mind. And now my handsome Beau is 5 years old! It's funny how even in a year how much he has changed. He looks the same, but has really filled out. We go to the doctor for his check up next week, but I think he has put on about 10 pounds this year and I can't wait to see how much taller he has gotten. And last year he had a Thomas the Tank Engine BD party and this year he wanted Transformers. He asked for Power Rangers and Transformers for presents, (and of course anything having to do with sports and NASCAR) and he loves anything rough and tough. He is pure 100% BOY! And now his Dad is secretly excited that all his favorite kid toys are back in the marketplace and he gets to play with them all over again!

And our baby girl is already 6 months old! What? Time slow down, please! She now has two teeth. The second one came in the last week in July. So now she has her two bottom teeth. She isn't a fan of rolling over or sitting up unsupported, but loves to play with her toys, talk, and snuggle. And has become quite the fan of her cereal and veggies. Her and her brother are just the most amazing people. Brian and I count our blessings each and every day.

Beau had a great BD with his ole Mom and Dad. We took BD treats to school, we opened presents at home that evening, and then the staff at Old Chicago stood him on a chair and had the restaurant sing Happy Birthday! That would make even an adult blush, but he did really well! Got a little bashful in the end, but we were so proud - as we always are.
