Party On

I'm sure I'm starting to sound like a broken record over the past few years on here, but I can't believe how fast time flies once you have kids! We are now the proud parents of a funny and caring little 3 year old boy, yes Jack is 3 already - crazy. Jack is very into playing games at the moment, which I secretly enjoy. He still loves his cars, and has recently gotten to try bumper cars and go-carts for the first time - no surprise, both a big hit. Jack has so many funny little phrases lately, such as referring to everything as "last weekend." His latest example, "mom, I told you I just took a bath last weekend" or "we just went to the park last weekend." He has been getting up a little earlier than he's supposed to the past couple days, and when I asked him why he's been getting up so early, he looks at me and with a very matter of fact tone states, "mom, Stella woke me up." Hmmmmm, blaming his little sister already! Jack is becoming more and more independent, brushing his teeth, putting on his clothes and shoes by himself (when he's willing of course.) He's such a funny little boy and says at least one thing that makes me crack up and one that melts my heart daily.

Below are the pictures from Jack's birthday party - we hosted many of our friends and their 13 little ones at our house - the adults are almost getting outnumbered by the kids! It's so nice having summer birthdays for outside parties! Jack was in heaven, with all the friends, presents and birthday treats. He had a little trouble coming down from the birthday high the following week, but who could blame him, afterall, a year is a long time to wait for another one. although i'm sure birthday #4 will come way too quickly for mom & dad!
