Lee at 3 is so fun - sometimes so hard - but mostly so, so fun.  He is full of life and curiosity and makes my days so full.  He loves to play outside - exploring, working in the yard & fixing things, playing all his "sports" & on the playground, pretending to be a pirate, and riding all his things with wheels including his much anticipated new roller-skates.  He loves art projects and helping in the kitchen.  He says "I lushj you."  And then night-night, sweet dreams, I lushj you to the moon and back, don't lock the door about 15 times before you leave his room at night.  Loves to be a naked jay bird.  So many things are so "tool!"  Clifford & Curious George are his new favorite shows but he still loves him some Mickey Mouse.  Proud wearer of big boy undies - 4th potty training attempt was the finally the charm for us.  Sings along to praise CDs in the car and I love.  He loves school and all of his friends.  He is a roller-coaster some days when it comes to his mood - happy, sad, whining, ecstatic, crying - but I'm pretty sure that's normal.  I'm excited to see how he grows and changes and to find out all the new things about Lee this year.  Blessing.

 

 

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEE!

We celebrated Lee's 3rd Birthday with a campout party.  I can't believe my little baby Lee is such a big boy - 3 years old!  He is all boy with such a sweet heart and I am so thankful to be his mom.

It has been the most beautiful, warm winter day and I hope everyone, especially the birthday boy, enjoyed the party.  There were flashlights to decorate, tents, campfire, hotdogs, dirt cake, wheelbarrow rides, lots of fun on the playground and to top it all off a thrilling, hilarious campfire story told by Happy.  What's a birthday party without a terrified little boy - Webb - and then too many turns on the tire swing that leads to throw up everywhere - Rhodes?  A great day!  Happy, Happy Birthday Leebo!  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Taster Boy

I'm afraid Lee has inherited my sweet tooth and has named himself my cookie taster boy.  

 

 

Celebrate!

The day of Brant's birthday was so fun!  Why do babies love balloons so much?!  He woke up to a birthday balloon and then we went over to Mom & Dad's to play and then go on a hike.  Lee/Buzz, Tucker & Raines walked and played for about 2 miles and Brant & Finley snuggled up and enjoyed the ride.  So fun to let them run and play free at the mountain!  Later that night Mom, Dad, Natalie & her 3, Happy, Donna, Erin & DJ all came over for hamburgers and cake.  Lee was in charge of sprinkling the cake and so the whole kitchen was decorated for Brant's birthday!  Then, a few days later we had a little play date with Brant's baby friends.  There are so many sweet babies, mostly boys, that are so close in age to Brant.  So fun!

Happy, Happy Birthday to You!
