A Whole Hand!

Walker Texas Ranger turned a WHOLE HAND this year!  It is hard to believe our baby is five years old, and is going to real school next Fall.  We definitely can't remember what our family was like before he came, and my how he shook things up for us.  He is definitely the "boss baby" of our house, and everyone bows down to make him happy.  Reality is going to be hard for this kid one day....

As always, his birthday snuck up on me....being 5 days after Christmas just SUCKS!  Since Walker has few true interests (outside of coloring/painting and playing office), he is very difficult to buy for since he has everything he really needs.  I ended up holding back one of his Christmas presents and giving it to him for his birthday, with the idea that we will get him something special later this year.  Of course the rest of the family wanted to get him something, so we had the family over for dinner.  We had Taco Mama catered for dinner, bought a cookie cake and Mimi made him a chocolate cake.  The Bantas went to Urban Air with us that afternoon (per Walker's request), and then the whole family came over for dinner and Walker had his party!


The fab 6 have grown really close this year!


Lucky kid to have 2 birthday cakes!
Walker loved the attention, and was thrilled to get some more gifts to open.  I love that he is young and doesn't demand anything too big, but he did inquire about having a party with his friends.  Last year we celebrated his half birthday, and that worked out very well....so stay tuned, we may do it again.

I LOVE all of these kids!  So blessed to have all of these cousins in the same city!
