Happy 5th Birthday Landon!!

On August 2nd Landon turned a WHOLE HAND!!!

I'm not sure how we've gone from this...

To this...SOOOO quickly!!

His birthday celebrating started on Monday with a trip to Chuck E Cheese with Mum-Mum and Pop-Pop.  At first he just wanted them to come over, being the home body that he is, but then after a little convincing from Reagan he decided it did sound like a fun idea.  We have NEVER been to "the Chuck," so I guess I should be thankful we have avoided it until now.  It really wasn't that bad and the kids just had a BLAST!!

Landon was SO EXCITED for his birthday he said he couldn't wait to go to bed so he could wake up and it be his birthday!  Love this kid.  He woke up to a room full of balloons and goodies waiting for him. (pretty much all things he has picked out as we've been out and about and I just had to keep telling him, "we'll save it for your birthday!" there were a few surprises too though!)

THE Lego set he has REALLY, REALLY wanted!

I kept asking Landon what he wanted to do for his birthday and he really didn't know and then decided he wanted to play with Liam...seriously, these two are just too sweet!  SOO that's what we did, Liam came over and the boys just played and played.  Landon wanted McDonalds for lunch, so we hit up the drive thru and then came back for more playing and cake baking.

All fancy for the birthday boy :)

I finally got him dressed later in the afternoon and he needed some snuggles with his sis...these two are too much...they LOVE each other SOOO much!!

LOVE!!!!!!

Keith came home early and we had Landon's request of mac and cheese for dinner (the kid is so easy!) and then went bowling!  Landon was soooo excited to go bowling.  WELLL we got there at 6:05 and we were told there was no way we could bowl because leagues were coming in at 6:30, please note 25 of the 30 lanes were currently available.  This clearly didn't go over well with this Momma and the VERY RUDE girl behind the counter not only gave me a ton of attitude, but the manager as well...needless to say after breaking into tears and explaining that it was my son's birthday and all he wanted to do was bowl and we had to wait for his daddy to get home from work, we were able to bowl!  However, just Landon and Reagan because we did have to be quick for the leagues to come in and we didn't pay for a thing.  Ugh!  She was awful, but thankfully the birthday boy still got what he wanted and we had so much fun!

We came home for cake and ice cream!

LOL...the cake is by FAR my WORST EVER!!  I have no clue what I did, but Landon was happy that it was a "split in half" cake?!?!  Seriously Landon, you are the sweetest kid.  It's ugly and about to topple over, but you don't care.

Happy 5th Birthday to you buddy!!  Love you so so much!!

Looks a little better from this angle ;)

After measuring Landon on our ruler we found out he is taller at 5 than Reagan was when she turned 6!!!  This kid has always been a big boy, but holy cow!

The festivities didn't end there...on Saturday Grandpa, Nana, and JJ came over to celebrate again!!

Landon about toppled Grandpa down!

dollar dollar bills!

His HUGE Lego set (that he picked out!) but could NOT wait for!!

sweetness just playing away!

Landon, you are such a sweet, loving, crazy, playful, loud, snuggly, wild boy!  We just adore you and are so proud of the big, smart boy you have become!!
