3 Years Old!!

By
Can you believe it?!?! Jack is 3 years old today!

Last year, he really loved his party and eating cake. This year, he's been looking forward to his birthday for months - frequently claiming that each day was his birthday. Well, today, Jack-a-bear, you're right!

Jack seemed to have a great day.

  • he opened gifts...and then had to fight them out of Spencer's strong grip.
  • we went swimming and he "jumped" in the pool (he slid off the side into my arms, but this is progress for our cautious little man)
  • he had two breakfasts - his favorite: eggo waffles and then a bagel with cream cheese
  • he helped me pick out veggies at the green market
  • took a great nap!
  • picked out a cupcake from crumbs
  • had a yummy dinner at Bella Giardino
  • and then the best birthday present of all...had Spencer poop in the tub they were sharing...

Well, not everything was great - fortunately, the gifts and the pride he felt telling everyone that it was his birthday and that he was three made the day super special. 

Jack's birthday party is Saturday - should be great fun as well.

A few pictures.

Super Why: Why Writer - so excited!!

Birthday dinner at BG

Here comes the cupcake (Jack picked is favorite: vanilla with sprinkles)

Ready to make his wish.

Wish made. I hope it comes true little man.

We love you!

Spencer Time

A few recent pictures of Spencer. He is growing like crazy and picking up all sorts of new skills like grabbing toys on the playmat, grabbing blankets or clothes and shoving them in his mouth, and his new favorite pastime, putting his feet in his mouth (with or without socks!).     Learning all the tricks on his first flight. We lucked out and got an extra seat for his carseat (ok, I lucked out, but still...)  Sleepy times with Grandma    Enjoying a new toy!   Such a big boy

This weekend, the t-ball team was short a few players. Spencer was called up from the practice team to fill in. He was one of the smallest on the field, but played well, even teaming up with Jack for an out!

Growing up

By
Jack and Spence "graduated" from their respective preschool programs in the last couple of weeks. While the road along the way wasn't always the smoothest, the outcome couldn't be better. At Spencer's 2s club event, the kids demonstrated all the new skills they had learned in the gym. Lots of forward rolls, big jumps on the trampoline, and amazing core strength. The kids then enjoyed their favorite book of the year: mean soup. Afterward each child received an award. Spencer followed Jack's footsteps on this part by refusing to go up to accept the award. Regardless, we were so proud of Spence. He loved having his independence, being involved in a class, making new friends, and just having fun. Next year Spence starts preschool at the Y. Jack's tender care graduation was last friday. The event was held in the Little Theater at the Y. Jack was so excited to be on the stage. The class sang several songs ending with what has to be the anthem of kids 3...
