The Prince is 5

5 years ago I became an Aunt. It has been the single greatest joy of my life. Hands down. I didn't do anything to deserve it and Melissa did all the hard work to bring this little man into my life, but it has been such a wonderful and incredible experience.

On May 20th Vincent Raymond Deleon turned 5.

Here is what he looked like the first time I saw him 5 years ago.

He was so tiny!! And he had so much hair!
Here is our first photo together (can we just make a sidenote about how ridiculously short my hair was then?! Woah.) I haven't stopped cuddling him since...well atleast when he lets me. The kid never stops running.

And here he is now. Our little Vince the Prince, 5 years old!

We had a big party for him in Tallahassee and it was such a good, good time. My parents were there and so was Nathan. I love being with my nephews and family. These babies bring such happiness into our lives. What the heck did we do before them?!

I know every Aunt thinks her nephews/nieces are the cutest. But seriously? Look at these faces? Pretty sure it's no contest.

I know that Mothers always talk about how they can't believe they have enough room in their heart to love anyone more than their first child and then they have another baby and it just muliplies. Well it's true. Life is so much sweeter with Baby Clyde around who just turned 2, now that I've taken so long to blog this post. Our babies are growing so fast. I honestly cannot get enough of these two.

Aunt Mimi is pretty much my favorite person to be at the moment.
