Look at your little chest working so hard...
Ready for a burp after being fed by syringe...still getting oxygen from that tube...
Meeting Gavin...it was soon after this point that we wondered what we were thinking having 2 kids, well another child so soon after Gavin. Ornery...to say the least! However, it was all for the best! 
Just before your Spring Concert 2010
Where to begin...you never cease to amaze us. There is never a dull moment with you around. You are all boy, yet still love to be loved on when there aren't a lot of people around. You would play video games all day if we let you...you're quite the bike rider...basically you do everything your brother does, just in a different way. There aren't a lot of things that you two have in common, yet you're not a lot different either...that's a tough one to explain! You have quite a throwing arm...baseball should be interesting this year. An imagination is something you've had from day one...give you some army guys, cars, etc. and you'll play and imagine and create your little heart out. You are a mover and a groover...you can shake those hips like nothing I've ever seen before from a boy your size. Let's not forget about your hurkeys and now double hurkeys...we can thank Aunt Kelly for that one. Yet, you are your Daddy's son, so anything is possible :) We could do without the whining, but we're working on that one. You are NOT shy and are quite open about everything...there isn't a topic that you'd shy away from...and sometimes I really wish you'd keep your thoughts inside, especially in public, but you really do mean well! So, we wanna keep you that way...love you very much. I keep begging you to just stay little...and it doesn't seem to be working. You're determined to grow up right before my eyes! This is your "Golden" birthday. Turning 5 on the 5th...how fun! You are just dying to try out your new Slip-n-Slide from Taylor and Kurt. I have a feeling you'll get to try it...how can we not let you...even though it's too cool. Daddy took the day off to spend with you and fix our sump pump, and he has yet to fix it. You're being super patient though...lots of new things to play with from this weekend. You are one lucky boy! Hope you have yet another best birthday EVER! Love, Mom

Happy Birthday Maddox! Sorry I couldn't make it to your party, but I heard about the AWESOME slip-n-slide that you got. I want to see lots of pictures and videos of 'everyone' trying it out. Love you bunches!!
We have some pictures...no video...and no adults...FYI! Sorry...maybe another day. The boys are LOVING it! I think we better get them inside. Any bets on whether they'll end up sick!
aww Happy Birthday Maddox! You are a very special boy and carry a very special place in the Mann Clan's heart! Love ya!
LOVE YOU MADDOX!!!! Hope you had a happy birthday.
I was also thinking back 5 years ago today. Gavin was full of energy every minute he was awake. I guess he kept me busy those days you were with Maddox. But Maddox you are one of a kind. I still want my baby to hold yet. But no such luck, I guess. Happy Birthday!!!!
Happy Birthday Maddox Man! The Schneider boys think you and Gavin are just their greatest buddies ever! Hope you enjoyed your big day!
I love that you like to try out those cheerleading moves with me!! Reminds me of your dad when we were younger!! All boy but wasn't afraid to do gymnastics and all that girlie stuff with his little sister!! Love you sweet Maddox!! Glad to see you back at it DeAnn!
