"Mommy, I'm THREE!"

Another birthday has come and gone!
It's so strange to say, "He's three," when others ask.
We had a great, low key birthday this year.
I'll let the pictures do all the talking :)


"Mom, Connor's THREE" (looks down and slowly holds appropriate three fingers up!)


We opened gifts from Mom - tent, Cars sleeping bag, Sesame Street playdoh, Dumbo coloring book, and Christmas jammies. The playdoh was this year's birthday hit!

We went straight to the 'picnic table' to try the playdoh out!

We had a special visit from Nana that morning...

Connor loved his talking Toy Story balloon.

I made a "special breakfast" of cinnamon rolls, which Connor was oh so excited about until he touched them. He kindly says "Don't like these. Too messy!"
He ate them anyway then moved on to the playdoh again...

We got dressed and headed on over to "the bounce house place."

Where we bounced to giggles!

We enjoyed a romantic one-on-one date at McDonald's, full of nuggets, yogurt, and playtime, then headed home to watch "Toy Story One" and nap in our new tent.

After resting up, Matt came home and guests began to arrive for our family "party." Pizza was consumed, gifts were unwrapped ever-so-randomly by the party boy, assembly was done by Matt & Papa (muchos gracias!), cupcakes were inhaled, and playtime with Connor's new stuff was in full force!

"Oooooooo!"

"Toy Story Two!" (Thanks G.G.!!!)

"THOMAS!!"

Fun Christmas stuff! We could have all easily bought Connor a Christmas decoration & he would have been delighted!!

Once all wonderful gifts were opened, Papa and Matt got to work on Thomas, as well as the new wagon.

The funniest gift of the night was by far, Connor's new skates from Auntie Nicole & Uncle Craig. Well, the skate wearer, was the funniest!


Uncle Craig lended a few hands through the kitchen :)

Mr. Big man sang and blew out his candles like a pro!

I'm pretty sure the cupcakes were good too... ;)


Uncle Craig introduced Connor to the wagon box while Papa & Matt were hard at work putting it together!


A few test drives through the house...

And then we rounded out the evening with a cruise down the street!
A few sprinkles didn't stop us either!

We had a wonderful day celebrating!
Connor is by far the cutest three year old out there ;)
Just sayin'!
