(This picture was actually taken on Sunday. We got home too late on Saturday, so we had Transformer cupcakes after dinner on Sunday. I just love this picture, so I had to add it).
I can't believe that my little guy is already 5! Time sure does fly by way too quickly! We have had a wonderful day celebrating! We started the day off by making blue pancakes and bacon for breakfast. Dylan picked it out! Then, he wanted to open his presents, so I told him he could open 2 at breakfast, 2 at lunch, and 2 at dinner. He was really excited. He got a transformer and some bakugan guys. He is really into them these days. He played with them most of the day.
After lunch, Ricky surprised him and took him to see Gnomeo and Juliet at the theater. Dylan is just like Ricky and LOVES to see movies at the theater. When they got home, I asked Dylan if he would rather go to Jump It (the old Monkey Joe's) or Chuck 'E Cheese and he picked Jump It. I had never been there, so it was neat to see the huge jumpy slides and bounce houses. Dylan had a blast and was sweating in the first 5 minutes of being there. Lauren was terrified and would not let go of me. Ethan loves seeing everyone and the big colorful bouncy things. I took Ethan into the smallest bouncy thing and Lauren joined us. She got up and bounced when no one else was in there. She didn't like other people bouncing her! Ricky and I got to enjoy the obstacle course with Dylan since they weren't too busy. It was fun to go somewhere new for Dylan's birthday. 
Dylan had a blast and was off as soon as we got there!
This is where Lauren, Ethan and I spent most of the evening. We still had fun!
Everyone was hungry and tired after leaving, so we got some happy meals on the way home for dinner. Dylan got to open his last presents, a Tag reader and books, which he absolutely loves! It is great that it teaches him how to sound things out and will read to you. Great gift! It was a long day, but totally fun! Happy Birthday to my big 5 year old, Dylan!

I can't believe he's five either! What a big boy!!!
He's so big! It's amazing how quickly they grow up!
Dylan looks so grown up in those last two pictures! And Lauren looks a lot older too in that picture with the three of you. Wow. It makes it exciting to see pictures and sad to think what we are missing!
Ooh, and Happy Birthday Dylan! Noah has been talking about his b-day for a couple of months now-he would be so excited (and a little jealous!) that you had such a great day and awesome gifts!
