18 days left of being 7! July, 2025

Walker only has 15 days left of being 7!! cue the waterworks! 😭 He's growing up so fast, I can't believe it!! His birthday is so, so, so close, considering he started the countdown at 90 days! 😂 he is so so SOO excited about his birthday and has big plans and ideas for what he wants to do, including a big friend party at Urban Air (not happening, too expensive), a big friend party at Chuck E. Cheese (not happening for aforementioned reasons 🤑), playing tag with Atticus and Declan (definitely happening!), water balloons, and more! For his birthday wishlist, he really wants a deer head to hang on his wall, a French fry maker, 1,000 Legos, a remote control car, a snow cone maker, Pokemon cards, the Lego starship death star thingy, etc. He's so precious!

Walker loves to show me his special things. For example, last night, Walker asked me to watch him smear ice cream all over his face. 🤣  And then this morning, Walker woke up and asked me to watch him perform a magic trick; he held up his blanket and said, "Now you see me, now you don't!" and then he dropped his monkey blanket and ran away giggling. Oh, sweet boy, never grow up! Next, Walker asked me to watch him as he showed me how he can stretch one arm all the way behind his back.And then he asked me to watch him hide in a box! And then at the dentist, Walker asked me to watch him as he touched his toes to his forehead. Oh sweet Walks, I will watch you do anything you ever want. I cherish these days so very much, because more than ever, I realize how fleeting they are. Love you more than life itself, Walker Cade! (and of course I took pictures of it all!)

PS Walker looooooves to giggle! What a gift!

PPS one of my favorite things about Walker is how he says, "pod-un-me" (aka pardon me) when he doesn't hear someone. He says it at least 10 times a day and it's the sweetest!
