Devan turns 5

Devan's birthday was a lot of fun. We all woke up early so he could open presents before dad went to work. He got a batman cave (that he's wanted since before Christmas), and a batman lego game for the wii (that he LOVES, and is quite good at). For breakfast he had German pancakes, with strawberries and whip cream. He went to preschool in the morning and brought cake pops to share with his friends. Before picking him up I loaded up the boys bikes and we went for a bike ride at the park and played on the toys. I let Devan pick the next activity and he chose to go to the zoo to see the snakes. Both boys were exhausted by the time we finished at the zoo and pretty much passed out with in minutes of leaving the zoo. We had Devan's favorite for dinner, Big Shrimp, and he also requested to have mango. Later in the evening we sang to him and had a spiderman cake. It was a wonderful day and I can't believe my little guy is not so little anymore. 5 seems so grown up!

Hello little Miss Talented! the cake and pops are very very cute. I really like your pictures of your boys too. Devan has some pretty standard random 5 year old answers, he's pretty dang cute. I think you are an awesome mom.
