Almost 5 years old!

Wow! I haven't blogged since August 1st. Our lives have been so busy with school starting back up that time has just flown by. Kade started a new school, Galaxy Ranch, in Rockwall and LOVES it. He gets to go to swim class once a week, spanish, art, music, sports, and computer all for the same price I was paying at Primrose. We have also been playing soccer for Lakepointe and T-ball in Wylie. I haven't even made time to go to the gym in two weeks. It's just madness at the Spampinato house!

Kade's new love these days seems to be LEGOS. He eats, sleeps, and breathes them. I took him to the LEGO store at North Park about a month ago and it was love at first sight. Kade loves to build, draw, create etc. I think he is going to be my academic prodigy and my next child will probably be some kind of star athlete that battles the "no pass no play" rule each six weeks!!!! HA! I think I have a future architect on my hands...no complaints here! He is also in love with gift cards. I have bought him a couple to McDonald's and Chic Fil A and he thinks it is the neatest thing to pay for his own food with his own "credit card"!

In a just a few short weeks my little man will be 5 and I am filled with so many emotions. I can't believe that 5 years have come and gone since this beautiful little boy was given to me. He is the love of our lives. I don't even remember what life was like before he came along.

We have an awesome party planned to celebrate his 5 years. It's all about fire trucks! We are having a real fire truck come to the house and take the kids for a ride around Rockwall...how cool is that?!?! We also found a fire truck bounce house to continue with the theme. While at the LEGO store I found a LEGO fire man for each of the kids as their party favor! And the backyard will be decorated with balloons, flames, fire hydrants, and dalmations! We are looking forward to this day and are praying for another beautiful day of weather. Each year we have had Kade's party outside and the weather has been gorgeous. Let's hope it's a 5 year record!

One of my dear friends, Casi, took pictures of Kade for his 5 year photo shoot. They turned out great! As soon as I get them downloaded to my computer I will be posting for all to see.
