Today my little boy turned three years old. When he woke up this morning, I reminded him that it was his birthday, and sang Happy Birthday to him. Now, either he doesn't like my singing, or he just doesn't like birthdays in the morning, because while I sang to him, he growled at me. (yes, he growls)
He had a tough morning. I left him here with Daddy so I could go pick up his cake, along with a few other odds and ends at Wally world for his party, and he wanted to come. (cue fit #1)
I came home in a hurry to pick up Kenna and her boyfriend so they could help me set up the party at my Gma's. When I didn't have the cake in my hands for Jack, and he met me at the door begging for it, cue fit #2.
Kenna, Matt and I went to Gma's to set everything up, wrap presents and other things, we were running a half hour behind schedule at this point. I had spent too much time alone in Wal-Mart with out kids...what a blessing that is....
Jack shows up with Daddy, walks in, everyone screams happy Bday to him and he's happy. He wants to know where his cake is....I show him the cake.....Happy Jack! Jack immediately wants to take the cars off of the cake and play with them...uh-oh....cue fit #3.....
We grilled our food, explaining to Jack that we have to eat before we have cake, as if he doesn't already know this....and he's okay with that....

Kasey chilled out on the couch with Gpa for a little while, chewing on his oxygen hose...
Here she is practically strangling him with it..=)
Aw, how cute
Time for presents!~
Jack wanted to open this one first, because it had cars on the wrapping paper....it was a huge semi truck with cars on the inside...let me re-phrase that....it was a car carrier in the shape of a semi-truck....
a puzzle
a garage that Kenna put together when we got home...(she said it was a pain to put together, but she did it anyway....what a good sister)
Mark's parents got him this Handy Manny construction set. When he opened it, he said, "I saw this on TV!" He of course wanted to open it right away, but it says clearly on the box, "Over 45 pieces" and I say NO to that...it must wait til we get home
Mark and I got him a guitar....gone are the days when my sweet sweet boy used to sing a "mommy song," now he strums the guitar and sings something that I could only associate with thrash metal, which I have NEVER listened to....I fear the worst in his musical taste!
Toy Story movie, this made him really happy too. Gma and pa AZ got him this movie and pj's that were tossed to the wayside...how rude..
Looking at the construction set...he couldn't wait to open it!
A sideways bday cake
There, that's better
He's delighted with his cake
patiently waiting for everyone to stop singing....
Blowing out the candles...almost done
All done!
Playing with a sticker book that my mother left for him
playing with an etch a sketch my uncle gave Kenna
Mommy and Jack!
Daddy and KC, yes, he does exist...just very rarely in pictures....
