The Mayor is 5. 5. Ugh. This is a big deal and a big age. 5 isn't baby, it isn't preschool, it is a kid. A big kid. 5 is so school age to me and I just can't believe my little boy is 5. Ok time, you can slow down a little bit.
Even though it was a tough pill to swallow, we did have a great day celebrating the big day. D and I went to The Mayor's school and brought cupcakes. He was so proud we were there and we brought sweets. The boy loves a cupcake. He was so cute...they gave him a "Happy Birthday" paper crown and he wore it all day up until bedtime.
After school, we hung out at the house and then he chose his birthday dinner. He wanted the macaroni and cheese from Shane's Rib Shack. So Shane's Rib Shack is what we had.
Mamie and PopPop gave The Mayor 4 tickets to "A Day Out With Thomas". D decided to stay home with Love Bug...we just didn't think she would hold up all day. Thomas was located in Cordele which is about 2 1/2 hours away. 5 hours in the car and then walking around just doesn't mesh well with a 2 1/2 year old. Besides, it ended up working out since she spiked a fever last night and slept until 11AM this morning!
We asked our dear friends Vicki and Aidan to go. The boys HAD A BLAST! They were so sweet and well-behaved all day. And just listening to them "have conversations" was hysterical. They would talk about the trains, and toys, and movies...and whatever else 4 and 5 year old boys talk about. On the way home, they were both pretty anxious to get out of the car, but we really can not complain. They did awesome and Vicki and I loved getting to chat and hang out all day.
We got home a little after 6:00 tonight and both kids are asleep. It has been a perfect Saturday.
The Mayor and Ms. Karen...they share a birthday :)
