Happy 5th Birthday to Isaac!

This is going to be a big post...but what do you expect when one celebrates the day of birth for two days... and it snows.

The usual... breakfast.  It worked out so great because J&O had a snow day on Isaac's birthday so we got to have a family snow fun day.

 His mouth is so big now, he can eat one doughnut in one bite! 

Way to go!

More, please!

He opened one present after breakfast. It's there under his hand. It's the turtle he's wanted since Christmas.

 "Mom, do you want to see my ninja moves?"

 He thought he was ready to go outside after the ordeal of snowpants and boots. Jacket and gloves help too.

 They were excited to show me how they made headless snow angels by doing it on their tummies.

 The best snow-playing time... it was snowing on us the whole time we were out so we got to lay down and look up while it fell on our faces.  Although, I think this picture was from day 2 of playing so no falling snow.

And somewhere in there we had lots of hot chocolate.

 We took him to a Japanese steakhouse since he's never been.

 The fire was cool and Olivia got rice thrown at her face.

 We also got Dairy Queen ice cream.

 Olivia is giving him his birthday hug.

 A couple more presents were opened! Thanks Fowlers for the ninja gear and Gramp&Nana for the ball bounce back thing-a-ma-jig.  Nothing in the house has broken...as of yet.

 Isaac wanted an airplane cake forever, but then decided he wanted a tank cake. I thought airplanes would be easier, so then I just combined the two.

 Then came more partying with G&G at Firehouse Subs.

 Just cuz...

 A barrel of teeth.

 Good thing we got a picture before we found out you can't stand on the blowup animals.

 Bounce USA.  Elias hung in there with the big kids till he fell and hurt his head. He spent the rest of the time sucking his thumb and holding my hair.

 I told Isaac to look at me and smile, so Elias did.

 He got lots of fun presents, this was just the clearest picture.

 Playing with a vet clinic.

 Thanks for coming!

 Thumb-sucking hero.

  Partying like a clowning Mr. Potatohead superhero.

Happy birthday to the most wonderfulest boy a mom could have! Isaac melts my heart with fun, excitement, laughter, persistence, volume, thoughtfulness, kindness, creativity, sincerity, love, 

and all boy ness!
