Reece turns 5

We'd always gone, to Iowa at the end of June (when Lindsey has her birthday), so we decided to postpone our trip until it was Reece's birthday. That way he gets a whole week of fun for turning 5.


Reece has been such a joy these past 5 years. We could call him the "typical baby of the family" who likes to be the 'star attraction'. He loves to make all of us laugh. When he knew we would laugh just watching him raise his eyebrows up and down -- he would raise those distinct eyebrows up and down for hours. When he would get in trouble, he would try the eyebrows just to see if that would make us laugh instead. He is loving and affectionate and a joy to be with. It's been great fun to teach him how to read and listen to him ask for more Math. We know it is WAY too early to do any piano lessons, but Brian has said he is a kid that has discovered awesome things while spending hours at the piano. Playing board games, reading books, swimming, biking, and soccer are things he currently enjoys. We love being his Mommy and Daddy. I can't believe he is 5 years old!
