Today, my baby turned 8. I remember when our only son was born – September 26, 2001 at 4:11pm. Back then I didn’t know he’d be the only little boy in our family. I just knew he was the first… and he was precious. He was 9 pounds, 6 ounces 22.5 inches long. The nurses referred to him as “the big one” :) Since Day 1, he’s been all boy… rough and tumble… and has always aspired to be just like his daddy. I’m so proud of him. He’s a great little boy… and someday, he’s gonna be a great man - just like his daddy :)

My mom got him a football for his birthday, but like all grandparents – of course – she gave it to him 2 weeks early LOL Barry and I got him a SWAT uniform, which he LOVES! He hasn’t taken it off all day - except to eat his cake!

Tre and I this morning:

I made him a special brownie “cake” with marshmallow topping.
I drew a football in fudge icing! He LOVED it :)

We timed it just right so that he could blow his candles out at exactly 4:11pm!!
