My Big 3 year old

So as usual I'm a little late, but we're all used to that right?? Last Friday, the 10th, my baby turned 3. I can't believe how fast the years have gone. We had his birthday party on the 11th and it was such a great time. He had a "Gronkle" party, which is one of the dragons from "How to Train Your Dragon" (a family favorite) We had a ton of people and even more kids. They painted cardboard shields and swords, we had a "dragon training" course and then the pinata. We grilled chicken and hot dogs and even though it was totally unorganized and Chris had to run back to the house 6 times because we kept forgetting stuff (we never did remember Ketchup or a knife to cut the cake) It turned out great. Everyone had a great time and Myles of course loved it.


A little about the boy who will always be my baby.

He is so sweet and gentle, he's the first to say sorry and is always so concerned if someone is upset or sad.


His brain is like a sponge. He's so smart, he knows his colors, shapes, and most of his letters (capital and lower case) as well as the sounds.


He loves books, especially ones about dragons and dinosaurs. One of his favorite places to go it the library.


He loves the color green. "It's his favorite" as he reminds us daily.


He loves the show Caillou, he watches it every morning and know all the peoples names and has most of the episodes memorized. We can quite often relate something in our daily lives to an episode of that show. (this might be a bad thing) but it's helped him understand quite a bit about what goes on in his own life so I guess it's not that bad.


His vocabulary is amazing! He is often heard saying the weirdest stuff, I have no idea where he gets it from.


He gives the BEST squeezer hugs ever!!!


Now that I'm done bragging I'll get to the pictures of his party. Happy Birthday Goober!! You are the best thing that has ever happened to our family and you are loved more that you could ever know!

This little boy LOVES monster trucks!! This one is his favorite Bounty Hunter.

His Gronkle cake that my fabulous Mother-in-Law and Sister made. We had to be sure that it had wings. Myles was very adamant about it.

Part of the Dragon Training course. The balance beam.

The training course turned into an all out Sword fight, With Chris, Uncle Clay and Uncle Nate getting quite the beating.

Painting Shields, luckily it was washable paint.
