AJ turns 6!

This was AJ six years ago. Born on April 9th at 2:53am,

he weighed 6lbs. 12oz. and was 18 1/4 inches.

I can't believe it's been six years since AJ was born! How he has changed our lives. We celebrated AJ's big day with a backyard party for 10 friends the weekend before the actual day. They had a ball! AJ is still very much a Buzz Lightyear fan, so we had the space rocket Jupiter Jump and star themed cupcakes.

It must taste goooood!
AJ and some of the friends.

Of course, opening presents is always the highlight of a party!

On the morning of April 9th, AJ had a special homemade breakfast on a special birthday plate.

It was then off to school where mom & dad showed up at snacktime with star shaped rice crispy treats. Ms. Annie lit six candles. You can tell that AJ was either very concerned about the fire or was sizing up his task. When asked to make a wish, he said "I wish for all my friends to be my best friends forever!" What a sweetie!

The class then sang the Happy Birthday Cha Cha Cha song to him while he danced.

AJ is such a loving and loveable child. He tells us "I love you" at least 100 times a day (in English, Spanish, & Sign Language) and gives the best hugs.

We love you little buddy! Happy 6th Birthday!
