Happy Birthday Munchkin Man!

And they grow up....


This handsome kid turned seven in March...seven! When I married Jesse he was only two and half. It is crazy to think how fast time has flown. Every year I make something for the birthday boy to wear with the number of his birthday. He loves this and had been thinking about what he wanted well in advance of his birthday. His request this year was obviously a shirt. (Freezer paper stencil and shirt from Target)

FLASHBACK: Years three (iron ons that I made on our computer, shirt from Walmart), four (crown made from felt), five (freezer paper stencil of Porter's silhouette holding up five fingers) and six (a hat custom made from Lids). 



Dinner request: Pizza...so we went to the Pizza Factory. 

 Cake request: Ninja turtles. Yes, I made one in each color.

getting so big...

My little Munchkin started Kindergarten! He is growing up so fast, becoming so witty and more and more adventurous. 

We wanted to make a present for his teacher, and instead of a crayon wreath, we decided on her intial of her last name. Turned out great, and was super cheap! I cut an "H" out of a cardboard box, glued some scrapbook paper on the back, attached the ribbon with glue and then all the crayons. I bought some boxes of 24 crayons for $.40 at Walmart and used about 4 boxes (after taking out all the cream, white, black, gray and brown). Super cheap and super easy!





My handsome boy. 




Right before walking into class, I almost cried. But ended up crying the second time I dropped him off instead of the first.
