Jonah turns FIVE!

Yikes! One in school this year. I feel official. I have to say, I was nearly on the verge of tears all day thinking about this little boy of mine who's not so little anymore. Better capture the moments now. In the morning he opened presents.

A camera...


Dueling transformers...


If you know Jonah, you know that he LOVES his "blank." Can you see the passion on his face for this thing. I know...it's really nappy. We've already begun to talk about what will happen when this one is no longer. No worries. He's found another that he really likes too. Great.


I'm no cake expert, but put some Star Wars figurines on top and you're good to go. Jonah was thrilled with it.


Ahhh...so sweet.


The only thing Jonah asked for his birthday was to go to Game Works, so we grabbed a couple cousins and family and headed down there Friday night. He pretty much stayed at this dinosaur hunting game the entire time...until he was informed there were Star Wars games as well. Where did this fascination for Star Wars come from?? Oh yeah...thank you Josh.


Char was absolutely mesmerised by this place. She mostly just stood around, eyes wide, watching all the people at their games--until she decided on one of her own.

And of course Ellie didn't lose any time spotting out the pink games.


Josh and Rob apparently were creamed by their dad. President's got skills all right.


And here are a few from his soccer game Saturday. It was a crazy busy day for him with the game, two friends' parties and a Sun's game with Josh that night. I'm pretty sure he had an awesome fifth birthday.

Happy Birthday Jonah. I showed james, but he doesn't remember. We were even there a year ago, but forgot to take pictures of course, so I have nothing to remind him, besides old old Williamsburg pictures.
