It's the Jaker's birthday today! Woohoo!!!! He informed me this morning that it's great to be 5. Last night, before bedtime, he had a little conversation with his dad and told him that since he was going to be 5 he didn't need to wear pullups anymore. Our little guy has had an issue with the dreaded bed wetting, but apparently when you turn 5 you no longer have that problem. Guess what?! He proudly wore his unders and woke up DRY! Wonder if it had anything to do with the 2 potty breaks throughout the night? He was so proud of himself, though. When he woke up this was the conversation we had.
J- Hey Mom! Guess what? I didn't pee my pants!
M- Way to go, bud! Give me a high five!
J- Mom, did you know Jordan wears unders to sleep in?
M- Umm, yea I knew that.
J- Well, now I can be like Jordan and wear unders to sleep in too!
Makes a mom proud. He's growing up so fast, too fast for this mama's heart. He's smart as a whip, loves school, is incredibly athletic, has a huge heart and loves nothing more than to tease the dickens out of his older sister. Although he had his issues when he first came to our family, he's always been our Bubba. I wouldn't trade him for anything and feel so lucky to be his mom.
In the tradition of birthdays at our house, this is what he's chosen for the day~
He gets to hog the bean bag chair all day because "He's the man" today.
He chose McD's for lunch.
He wants a chocolate cake for his birthday cake because he's "chocolate".
His dinner choice is Ramen...hmmmm me thinks he'll be eating ramen and the rest of us will find something a little more appetizing.
And...he gets to wear unders to bed again!
He's such a funny kid! Happy birthday Jakie! We love you to pieces and pieces!
