Happy Birthday Hyrum

A few weeks ago our little Hyrum turned 5 . It's crazy how old that seems to me, probably because now he's old enough to start school....YIKES! I'm not sure I'm ready for this whole growing up thing. Ready or not, though, it's here and I'll just take it one story, one snack-time, one wrestle on the floor, one scraped knee, and one good night squeeze at a time.

Now, a little bit about our 5-year-old.


Hyrum....

• LOVES to ride his two-wheeler bicycle


• is an awesome big brother to William and Thomas


• requests ramen noodles everyday for lunch, stating "I hate peanut butter sandwiches"


• thinks that spiderman, batman, ironman, and star wars are "so cool" because that's what his preschool friends like (he doesn't even know what star wars is)


• is still completely fascinated by garbage trucks-friday mornings at our house are spent anxiously awaiting the suckers our friendly garbage man brings


• enjoys building and creating things out of odds and ends around the house


• loves to play at the park with Daddy during his lunch break


• can be heard singing/humming a little tune no matter what he's doing


• wears his CTR ring proudly, showing it to everyone


• runs outside each night when Dave gets home so he can sit in daddy's truck


• says, "Mom, do you think I'll get hurt doing this...." as he tries doing tricks off the play set in our backyard

Here is his annual birthday video....

We love you Hyrum!
