All I can say is wow where has the time gone. I feel myself saying that more and more often as I watch my children growing up before my eyes. Spencer has been such a fun loving sweet boy that I feel once again blessed to be his mom. Spencer was probably my easiest baby and toddler. He never got into trouble and was always looking for ways to make Mike and I happy. Spencer has an awesome personality he is never far from a crowd it seems like people are just drawn to him and his infectious personality. He is always trying to find new ways to make people laugh he is my little comedian. His mind is always working overtime to be a high achiever or just to be able to create or build something. Since about age 2 until now you will usually find Spencer in his room building anything from blocks to 500 piece star wars Lego sets. He has an audience of his 2 younger brothers who look up to him and want to be and do everything he is and does and I am so proud of the example he is to them.
Each of the kids went with me to the store and wanted to buy Spencer something with their own money...I helped Jake out with some money. I love that Brooke and Tyler were so excited to spend their own money that they had been saving. As a parent those are the moments that make us smile watching our kids find joy in doing things for other people. This year Spencer asked for Star Wars Lego sets, Bakugon (magnetic balls that transform into creatures), and he wanted some Pokemon cards to trade with his friends. When Spencer woke up on his birthday he was so cute I asked him a couple of questions of what he wanted and you can tell he had put a lot of thought into his day. He wanted doughnuts brought into school for his class and then he wanted me to take him out to lunch (that's my tradition on their bday). For dinner he wanted Brookie's spagetti and meatballs and for desert a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. I love celebrating the kids birthdays it gives me a chance to spoil them and give them all of my attention.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPENCER!

Glad you had such a great birthday -- you are an awesome model builder for sure! I was more then impressed to see everything he built by himself. I loved staying with the kids and appreciate them taking such good care of me.
love you all
Spencer's so photogenic. Actually, all your kids are. I'm looking at the pictures along the side of your blog and everyone looks so cute!
Glad Spencer had a great birthday!
Jaimee, my Joseph and your Spencer should be growing up on the same street! Joe has been building anything and everything literally since age 2, legos being his favorite. He is so creative. He turned 9 in October so they are close in age. Maybe next time I visit Cali they could get together and play! Joseph also has the audience of his two younger brothers. Lots in common. Cute kids you have. I know what you mean about how fast time goes. I am thinking that so often.
We love you, Spence! I wish I could have been there to see you and give you a hug!
