This requires balance!

JP can't bear to watch Andrew, as the "5" candle is not blowing out very easily!


King for the day!


The birthday Celebration continues with a Cook-out and cake--again!

Happy 5th Birthday Andrew, we love you!

It's hard to believe but we celebrated Andrew's 5th birthday this past week. It seems so recent that we were in Howard County Hospital celebrating his birth and all the excitement of his arrival! Andrew has brought us more pleasure, love, happiness and fulfillment in our lives than we ever could have imagined.

It has been a busy time. Carolyn and Bill came up from Florida and Aunt Olga came for West Virginia for the festivities. We went out to dinner on Andrew's actual birthday--May 22nd--to his choice of Mimi's Cafe with all his Grandparents and his Great-Aunt Olga. The day before, we celebrated at pre-school and Mommy made cupcakes. On Sunday we had his party at Pump-It-Up with 15 family and preschool buddies. After the Pump it Up party, we hosted about 25 family and family- friends back at the house for a cook-out....so we are partied out for awhile!
