five

Okay, so I blinked. And then my first-born son was five years old.

My little dimpled middle child is turning five tomorrow morning and I just had to post some photos of this beautiful boy that I am blessed to call my son.
He started out life as a little bundle of sweetness. Small and still and strong.

...and he soon grew to be more than my arms could hold .

He's been being smothered in kisses and love and big-sistering from the start. And this child still attracts love and affection from all who encounter him.

My little beach comber. Lover of sticks. The explorer and nature lover of the family.

Nicolas my love, happy fifth birthday.

{Thank you, thank you Kristen from Kristen Taylor Photography at He[arts] and Thoughts for blessing us with an outdoor family photo shoot lastnight! More of her photos to come on HomeGrownLife real soon!}
