Happy 6th Birthday!

My boys are born 3 years and 8 days apart and still people ask me all the time
"Are they Twins?"
*Maybe I should stop making them match right about now!*


Again, I can hardly believe that my little, little tiny baby is now 6!
He is BIG TIME now!
So here are the top 6 things I love about this little munchkin:

1. He is truly a grateful child! His heart is very pure and genuine. I love how sweet he is!
2. He is NEVER clean! Honestly, I wish I was kidding but it is IMPOSSIBLE for him to be clean..Just Deal!
3.He looks up to his big brother and loves to hang with his Dad at the baseball game!
4. His favorite team behind the Twins is "Boston Green Socks". Yes, he re-named them.
5. His favorite color is green!
6. His favorite food is Noodles...any kind of Noodles!

We love you & Wish you the Happiest 6th Birthday!

Love-
Mom, Dad & QB!

My Baby is 9...

He was due to arrive August 23rd, 2001. HE had a different plan.
After an entire plate full of peanut butter cookies and laying on the couch....
I got up, my water broke, and my world changed FOREVER.
 Little did I know that just 9 short years later that HE would teach me some of life's greatest lessons.
Here are 9 things that I LOVE about my 9 year old....
 Happy Birthday Baby!

1. He loves God and asks me frequently how many times he can
"pray" to ask God into his heart.
{I think he just wants to make sure}! 

2. He has more math power in his pinkie that I do in my whole body...
yes, he is my TIP calculator!

3. He is a great big brother...
give or take a punch or two

4. He has a lot of great ideas that could turn into something big for him.
 {I expect all of you to buy the  Roboball}!

5. He has grown 3 inches in the past year and his shoe size is 4.

6. His FAVORITE food is Spaghetti and Meatballs & The Meatball sub @ Subway.
Who can blame him?

7. His current idea for his profession is a Sportscaster.....
Can I get a S-Y-R-A-C-U-S-E?

8. He absolutely can NOT get enough of sports.
He loves it all! Baseball, Football, Basketball, Soccer, Hockey ;)

9. He is LOVED by his family for everything he is now,
and everything he is about to become!

WE LOVE YOU!!!

Happy 9th Birthday!!!!

Mom, Dad & Brother
