rudger's 6th birthday







What a delight this kid is! There is just something about him ♥♥ We have been trying to soak up every moment possible because we know how fast those older three brothers have grown up. I have been mourning the fact that we'll never have a little boy again. 

He gets excited about the simplest things, he loves traditions like crazy, he leaves love notes all over the house. Rudger continues to love warm milk (52 seconds please), the thing that devastates him the most is being told no to warm milk because it's 10:00 at night. 

Earlier this year we watched the movie Zorro. Rudger loved it! The next day I found him in his room marking rows of Z's, with a pen, everywhere. His nightstand, bed, little desk, the wall. Really, everything. My first reaction was incredible frustration, but then I saw his sweet face and how proud he was, there was no way I could be mad at him. It was innocent and I decided I never want him to grow up ever!! To this day you can still see a faint Z in his sheets. :)

Happy 6th birthday Ruggy!!
