A tribute for Egan on his 5th Birthday!

5 years ago today Aaron and I sat on a porch and saw two beautiful full rainbows. Looking back on it we think they were a sign of things to come. July 24th, Pioneer day, 2005 Egan was born. Just two weeks later he was placed into my arms, and at 5 pounds he was the most beautiful thing I ever saw. Here is a picture of that day.

Such a sweet baby. So precious.

We didn't have much clothes that fit him as a preemie.. I found some baby clothes at the local thrift store. After putting them on I noticed a hole in the bottoms... I look at the tag and they were "Build a Bear" clothes for teddy bears! Here he is wearing them.

Today he turned 5! The other night I shed a few tears in mourning for his babyhood... but he is so smart and so ready to start on the next faze of his life in school. I'm excited for his future!
Here are a few of the pictures of the day... he wanted a hot wheels theme. He got a Leapster 2!
Egan Loves making cake! Luckily so does mommy!
My favorite picture of the day! He is so big! I can't believe he's 5!
It has been an amazing 5 years.

Us singing Happy Birthday! Notice he makes his wish like he says his prayers. His wish was "I wish mommy and daddy to be happy" So sweet. And we are! He's not so nice to the dog though. :)
Egan opening up his Leapster. I love his reaction!
