Six

Jimmy's sixth birthday was Saturday. We had a party for friends that afternoon, and then a family party on Sunday after church. Check out the über-cool Spiderman cupcakes (created by Jim, resident evil genius baker and cake decorateur).

I'm still reeling, wondering where the last six years and my baby boy went. That probably sounds silly, considering I spend more time with him than anyone else does, but the changes seem so gradual when you're up close to them. This morning Jimmy went in for his yearly well-child exam and he was actually excited (a welcome change from last year's fiasco) to have his height and weight checked so he could see how much he had grown in the last year. At 3' 10", he is three inches taller than at his last birthday.

No more baby boy.
