Zach is now 5!

My goofy little boy is now a big bad five-year-old. He started his day by going to church and then opening presents when we got home. I didn't want to wait until after we went swimming and neither did he!

When asked what he wanted to on his day he said either go bowling or swimming. We chose swimming so off to the pool we went.

He did a lot better with attempting to swim. He started off with his vest on and then graduated to just using a noodle. He's getting there.

After a dinner of barbecue chicken it was on to the cake. Paul got him an ice cream cake and it was beginning to melt so we left it in the box.
This was the first year since he's been born that we haven't been at the beach or on the way home from the beach. Maybe next year we can go back to that tradition.
