Happy 4th of July.....and....

...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KOJI!!!
Hard to believe that he is 5 years old already...my, my, my how the time does fly by!!
So, to celebrate this special day, we went out for sushi and Shrek!! This was Koji's first time at going to an actual movie theater, and he did pretty good. Thank goodness the movie wasn't really very long...he started to get a bit "wiggly" towards the end!!!
(The movie, by the way, was...just okay. We are big fans of the first two movies and this one didn't really have the same "punch"!! We did laugh though...Kiyoshi got a kick out of some of the music numbers!!!)

Oh...if you are wondering about the haircut....no, Koji has not decided to look like his brother....Koji decided, sometime last night, that he needed a haircut....and he did it himself!!!
This morning, when he came into the kitchen, I was all ready for the morning birthday song, when all I got out was "Happy Birrrrrrraaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh What did you do to your hair?!?!?!"
Haven't really gotten a good explanation yet....fixed what I could before we went to the daycare (swear to you there are places that are completely bald!!). Before we met Kiyoshi and Issei for dinner, I ran by a salon and begged for their help. The guy there did a pretty good job!! Ah...the joys a raising little boys!!! :-D

Koji and his new swimming suit he got and in his "muscle man" pose!!

This next picture is probably one of my most favorite ones of Koji....it was taken just a few hours after he was born!

Even then, you can kind of tell there was an element of "fun" in his personality, can't you!!

What a cutie-patootie, huh?!?!?!

Happy Birthday, little man....we love ya!!!

Happy Birthday Koji!

My "baby" turns 6 in a couple of weeks! I won't forget that my baby was the inspiration for your baby!

Thanks Lauren...and for that little bit of inspiration, we will be eternally grateful...except during those times of, oh, like the haircut incident...and then I'm cursing pretty much everyone!! :-D
I remember when Pablo-Man was just a bitty-beany type thing...amazing how time flies, ne?

Ah, memories of the self-provided haircut...I think Anna was only 3 when she achieved that milestone :) Glad to hear the "baby" had a good birthday! Hugs and kisses!
