It's hard to believe that 5 years ago this goofy little guy, the Xanderman, joined our family. He has definitely kept us on our toes since that October day five years ago.
Birthday balloons!
When Xander arrived at preschool he saw the cute birthday sign hanging next to the classroom door and was greeted with a huge "Happy Birthday!" from his teachers.
A present from his sister...can you believe it was a Star Wars figure?
Oh, my!!! Lots more Star Wars guys!!
5 things I love about my Xander:
- how goofy he is
- how his two front teeth rest on his bottom lip when he smiles
- his great imagination
- how he picks flowers for me whenever we take a walk
- how he tells me that I'm the most beautiful mommy and gives me big hugs

Happy Birthday, Xander! He was just a little guy when we left. He would be such good friends with my boys!
Awww, 5 year old boys are the best! I enjoyed reading his favorites and he has so many similarities to my soon to be 5 year old. Happy Birthday!
Happy Happy Birthday Xanderman!! I love my nephew Xander so much! He is wierd (in a good way) and imaginative and we need more people like that in this world! You give him a big hug from me.
What a sweet boy. It is really hard to believe he is 5. It looks like he had a great birthday! Happy Birthday Xander! We love you guys!!
What a cutie. Not too many boys are so sweet with their moms, are they? I don't know. But it seems like he is so very sweet! I am sad that I don't get to see him but what has seemed like once a year the past few years. Please tell him that his Aunt Kelly loves and misses him!
