Yet another birthday in the Beach house hold this week. My oldest boy, Will, turned 5 just yesterday. Yes, so he is officially old enough to go to kindergarten. A fact that he repeated… all… day… long. That is when we weren’t defeating aliens with Ben 10 – his latest cartoon idol. It seems impossible that he could really be this old! He’s getting ready for school and carrying on conversations as though he’s 10 years old already. I’ve become accustomed to this behavior from Emma, but now Will… do they ever stop growing up? It’s exciting and I love that they are so mature. I’m happy for them and so unbelievably proud. It just seems like it’s all moving so quickly! In the blink of an eye my little baby William with the beautiful curly hair has turned into a little man.

Yesterday was my oldest’s birthday. My little Emma turned a big 7 and she’s so excited about it. Her birthday has become quite the topic of conversation around the house… for the last few months. Really I’d say since Christmas. The countdown has been endless – calendars marked (yes, more than 1) to show the occasion and the excitement has been escalating. For her “big” gift we went for something that she’s wanted for years now – a classic, “Just like Me” American Girl doll. We made her wait until she had blown out her birthday candles to open the box and the result was priceless. I think we picked the right gift for our new big girl. A doll, but not a baby doll. For my big girl… who’s not quite a big girl yet. Even if she thinks she is.

So the other day I was at my Mom’s house and my little sister wanted a few pictures for fun. And since today just happens to be her 13th birthday, I figure this would be a perfect opportunity to show off her new teenage charm. Happy Birthday!!!

Yep, another birthday in our house! Henry – my little crazy man that he is – is officially 3 years old now. We had a birthday party for him yesterday and he had sooo much fun! I made him a special chocolate cake with is favorite colors… And he couldn’t resist stealing little bits of it as the day went by. By the time we sang “Happy Birthday” there was a whole section missing from one side!! Once the festivities were over my guy got to take a walk with his big brother and sister because he‘s a big boy now too!!

This weekend was my youngest very first birthday! I can’t believe that Elizabeth is actually a full year old! There are no more babies in our house – she’s now officially a toddler. And a very, very energetic one at that. We played it easy this year with home made cupcakes and lots of fun.
