I can't even believe it but on January 22nd my baby boy, Ben, turned 5! He woke up to a floor full of balloons.
He came right down stairs and found his first present - a bag of balloons. Ben loves to blow up his own balloons and was so excited to get an entire bag all to himself. 
In Ben's room and the playroom the doors were covered in streamers that Ben had to break his way through. 
Ben loves to bake, and he loves muffins so he helped me make his breakfast muffins that morning. 
Present opening time!
Elizabeth was so excited to get Ben this Dagudar present. It was one thing Ben really really wanted!
Ben talking on the phone, hearing a birthday wish from his Grandma. 
Ben got to eat off of our special birthday plate and drink out of our birthday glass.
A few hours later we headed to a birthday party at Aqua Kids - an indoor pool. We had a monster theme.
Some of our guests ready to jump in the pool!
The pool was pretty warm - look at those pink cheeks!
The slide is one of Ben's favorite things at Aqua Kids. 
The party room. The boys who got finished swimming early helped me set out all the ice cream and spoons. They were a big help!
Almost time to blow out the candle!
Everyone munching away. 
Present time!
Whew- we were getting overrun in the present corner!!
Ben had a wonderful party and I can't believe he is 5 years old!! What a wonderful little boy we have, we love him so much!

What a fun day!!! I CAN NOT believe he is 5! I mean, the math works out but I still can't reconcile it in my brain! Looks like a really fun party and party theme too! I love seeing his smiling face and so many familiar faces as guests! Hooray for year 6!
I can't believe he's 5 either! We love our Benny Boy!!
Happy Belated birthday Ben! We love you!

The party was so adorable, I loved the monster theme and you did such a great job decorating for it! Aqua kids was a great idea! Happy 5th Birthday Benny Boy!
What a fantastic paty idea- a pool party in January and all the monster stuff!! Just what a big boy needs! 5- wow!
What a great day! I love that he helped with his breakfast!! I can't believe they are all five.
