"I'm turning 3! I'm turning 3! I'm turning 3!"

Spencer's birthday was June 1st. He was so excited (as we all were - well, except for those of us who were wondering how three years have passed!)

A few highlights

1. Balloons - we had picked up balloons on Saturday, a day before his party. When we got home with them, he grabbed the ribbons and started jumping and cheering "I'm turning 3! I'm turning 3! I'm turning 3!" It was pure joy!!

2. 5 Little Monkeys - This song is the class anthem for Spencer's 2's club class. All the kids absolutely love it. While the team was setting up for Spencer's party, I asked if they could find this song. They did and the results were amazing - picture 14 3 year olds jumping and dancing altogether. It was like Justin at a White Snake concert.

3. Dancing = Jumping. Pretty straightforward when you're 3.




4. Blowing out candles his way.

  1. Come on - how cute is the isolated candle blowout trick. I'll try that next time and it will take a little over half a minute if I average 1 second/candle. He's the cutest!

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

Called up

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

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...
