Happy 5th Birthday Ben!

Beni, you were sooo excited about your 5th birthday and very clear on your preferences.  First, you wanted a Guardians of the Galaxy cake.  This threw mama a little b/c I’ve been planning a Star Wars cake.  But that’s ok, it all worked out great.  Second, you wanted a birthday party at the jumpy house (Pump It Up).  We invited all the friends you requested – Ethan, Tad, Walter, Brady, Nora, Emma, Ellen, Ella, Gus, Augie, Luke, Bobby, Lorilei and Wyatt. 

Ju and Dave also came over and took you out for the day.  Then, mama took a day off for Beni and mama day.  We watched Kung Fu Panda 3, Rides at MOA, Sea life to touch the sting rays and lunch at the Rainforest Café.  You also wanted to get the poop emoji – which I couldn’t say no to.

You've also started to take Kung Fu class which you absolutely love!  You specifically asked me to sign you up for spring and summer too :)

At your 5yr check-up, you are right on track (or ahead) of everything!
43 inches tall
39 pounds
14.8% BMI
School conferences:  Teacher Deb thinks you are wonderful!
Pattern recognition, writing large and small case, great in math and reading, story development. A tad on the shy side with large group speaking.

Ben-isms:
1/7 - I just want toys I don't have and that's not spoiled
Mama, I want lots of toys because I want to wrap it up for you and baba
1/14 - I'm not tired, I'm just too excited about going to sleep
1/16 - (to Mama) You broke my heart
1/24 - Ooooo my penis is cold
2/20 - 2 fried chicken, 1 corndog equals 3

Happy Birthday Beni!
