Andrew is 3. I can't believe it! These past 3 years have flown by. It's true that when you have kids time speeds up. Yesterday was his 3rd birthday and we had a birthday party with all of his little friends, 9 kids total! Carter, Hudson, Harrison, Parker, Evan, Elizabeth, Aidan & Conner (the neighbors as Andrew calls them) and of course Andrew. It was a houseful and I was so glad that the weather held out and it was a beautiful sunny morning. We decided to do a lunch this year and had sub sandwiches for the adults and I made pb&j and pj&honey for the kids cut into dump truck shapes. It was a construction themed party, with an amazing dirt pit that my husband made, a super cute cake, dirt cake cups, and lots of caution tape. Such a fun morning. The party was from 11-1 and by the time everyone left Andrew was exhausted but hyped up from the morning activity and all the sugar. I put him down for a nap, but he didn't sleep long if even at all. The rest of the day we spent just the 4 of us playing with his new toys, dinner at CPK and opening the last of the gifts. I adore my little 3 year old!
The morning of his birthday we came into his room singing Happy Birthday, brought him a little treat bag (like the one he gave his friends at his party), and a hot chocolate from Starbucks. When we came in singing, he was not thrilled and started yelling. As soon as he realized that we had gifts for him he calmed down. He was very excited about the M&M's that were in his goody bag and his hot chocolate that he's been asking for for days!
