Nicholas had some rough spots during the day, mostly I think out of exhaustion and a sense that something wasn't quite right. But this evening he clicked in and had a lot of fun, getting really into the whole birthday thing. I have the feeling we're going to hear a lot about birthday candles, cake, and renditions of "Happy Birthday" over the next couple weeks.
You can see his excitement here:

He also got to go to Chili's for dinner, which meant guacamole. That made for a happy little boy.
I have a whole post to write about his last day of school and my intense mommy guilt over it, but I'm too tired to night to compose it. So instead I'll leave you with some pictures of the fun stuff--graduation and celebrating Nicholas' birthday. As always, there are a bunch more in the gallery.

We had trouble getting him to pose with us for pictures in our gowns, but he initiated trying them on himself:

Happy Birthday, Nicholas! We love you so much and are in awe of the little boy you have become.
That's a heck of a week, and an insane kind of day! Congrats all around!
