Ben Turns 5!

Turning 5 is a big deal, when you're turning 5. So what could be better than a party? Three days of celebration!
On Friday, Ben showed pictures of his first 4 birthdays to his schoolmates in pre-kindergarten. Saturday brought a costume-themed backyard bash with 7 of his buddies that he's grown up with. And we wrapped it up on his actual birthday with a Sunday brunch, complete with a spectacular Spiderman cake, courtesy of Gram Paula.
Sidney was a trooper, never complaining that there were no presents for her - only offering a helpful "Here Ben, present for you!" throughout the gift sessions.
Whew! Here are a few (too many?!) moments we enjoyed this weekend:




What a lucky and loved boy!
