Look Who's 5!

Justice turned 5 on the 21st of this month. That was last Wednesday. I can't believe it was 5 years ago that he was born. They grow so fast! He had an awesome day. It was a preschool day, so for his snack, he wanted to take Slim Jims for a birthday treat. That is so "classic Justice". He had a birthday breakfast with Dad at McD's. He wanted chicken nuggets, but had to wait until I took him there for lunch. Yes... I know we are horrible parents for subjecting our son to McDonald's twice in one day, but he loved it. And.... It was only one day! When we were there we sat next to 3 old men who loved visiting with us. I think I got three dates out of the visit. And, Justice snatched a few bucks from the men once they found out it was his birthday. He was so excited.
Later he went to school and had a great time. When I picked him up I heard several of the kids telling their parents they had meat sticks or flap jacks for a birthday treat. The parents didn't seem to believe their kids. Haha....!
After school Justice got to open his presents. What is the greatest gift ever for our little man? A 3ds.  He freaked out when he opened it. It was awesome. We also had a yummy cake decorated just perfectly. To finish the night, he  went to his favorite class, hip hop then swimming. He thanked me over and over for his awesome birthday as I tucked him into bed and let him stay up (in bed) to play his 3ds. I love that little guy.
Then Saturday we celebrated Justice's birthday by spending the day at the local hotel water park.
The kids loved it because there were no life guards on duty, so they could do all kinds of crazy things down the slides. AND...... JUSTICE LEARNED HOW TO SWIM! He is so big and so stinkin' cute!
I am so proud of him and forever grateful to be his mom...

Below is a video of him swimming for the first time without his life vest or any help. Such a wiggly fish! I love it!
