Wow- for some reason- 5 is such a big birthday in my mind. He's not a toddler- preschooler anymore. :( Dang- I had know idea I wouldn't be excited for my kids to grow up, before I had them. I love the people they are becoming, but want them to stay little, for a while longer! Camden even has a loose tooth. He said, "I promised I wouldn't growed up and I did it anyway!" Haha so cute!
Anyway- back to the birthday boy. He opened presents from us in the morning.
He got a remote control shark balloon. Unfortunately, his beloved shark balloon came to an early demise, when his friend, Chase came over for his party, and took it outside and let it go. Camden came up with all kinds of plans to retrieve it, to no avail. He was at the point of desperation, when he asked if I have any magic bean stalks that he could climb up to the sky, so he could get it.
Hungry, Hungry Hippos (which he had been asking for for a LONG time), a leap pad, and a couple other small items.
We celebrated his birthday with his friends today. He begged for Chuck E. Cheese. He only wanted 3 friends, which made it easy for us.
We went there during lunch, played, ate, and had cake and ice cream, and opened presents. It was so slow, so the workers pretty much treated him like a king! He even knew exactly what kind of a cake he wanted. He had seen a picture of a cake, and asked over and over again, for this particular cake. It was so easy to do- so I am not complaining!
Camden is my little buddy. He makes us laugh every day. Multiple times a day. He is so funny and quirky. He is so smart, and adorable- I can't help but hug and kiss him. A. LOT. He still loves his cats. A little too much. :) He carries them with him and talks about them all the time. We are hoping he will outgrow this phase at some point, before he graduates from high school. :) We cannot imagine our life without him. Happy 5th birthday Camden!!!
