Our Christmas Eve Baby Turns Seven!


Christmas is such a special time for us. We have so much to celebrate!  Michael's Birthday is Christmas eve day.  It's always his day.  We only begin to think about Christmas in the evening when the boys receive one Christmas Eve present. This year Michael asked for birthday bash cake (something my Mom got us hooked on) with pink icing! I find it terribly cute that he asked for pink icing as he's just coming out of a "pink is for girls" (picture a scrunched up nose) phase. 

Michael is now seven years old and is growing strong and tall right before our eyes.  A few weeks ago he came up to me with a swagger in his step and with a very grown up voice he said, "Mom, you know, I'm almost all grown up.  I'll be turning seven!"  I couldn't help but giggle as I told him he is certainly right!  Lately, he's all about being grown up.  His Christmas eve present was a pair of pajamas (as is our tradition).  This year we got him a pair of plaid flannel pj bottoms and a packet of boys white t-shirts like his Daddy wears.  He was really excited about his big boy garb.


We thought it fitting to get him a knight and dragon for his seventh Birthday.

We're so proud of you Michael!  Happy seventh Birthday!!!
