Our baby is 5 years old. I have not yet accepted that fact. Willem is secure, confident, inquisitive, and determined. At this moment Willem is learning to read. He can read most Level 1 and some Level 2 books on his own and is becoming quite a book worm.
He is madly in love with his goochy Audrey and plans to marry Ellie one day.
He is very into super heroes and pretend play. Now when we play trains he assigns each room to be a train car and assigns us different positions on the train. He's into playing Super Hero and fighting the bad guy and loves it when we'll wrestle around with him or pretend to fight him.
He loved his web shooting gloves.
The morning of his birthday Jason stayed home until 7 so Willem could open his presents and be there for Willem's birthday breakfast. We set up balloons all over the house the night before and put up his birthday banner. He loves all the hoopla.
The kids loved looking at his birthday poster and talking about each picture. We covered the fridge with extra pictures and that was a hit too.
That morning Tia Julie flew in so he had Julie, Audrey, Grandma and myself at his school birthday celebration. His class loved looking at the pictures of Willem and he was excited to walk around the world and hand out his treats.
His birthday requests were so interesting as they were not regular things that we make. For dinner he wanted pasta with chicken and spinach and for dessert he wanted Snickerdoodle cookies. He helped me make the cookies that afternoon and they are one of our new family favorites.
