Happy Birthday!

Doodle Turns 3!!!

The day started out sounding like this:

(gasp) "Balloons. Balloons. Balloons fall on my head."

We could hear the smile on your face.

You climbed in our bed, as you do every morning upon waking, and stated matter-of-factly, "Mommy and Daddy be sneaky."

Who wouldn't love waking up to a cascading avalanche of birthday balloons?!

After some morning snuggles, we went to the living room to start a fire in the fireplace so you could open your birthday presents from Mommy and Daddy!

  

 You have recently started showing a real interest in Play-Doh so Play-Doh tools were the perfect gift for you this year! 

After Daddy went to work, you and Mommy played Play-Doh for an hour and a half; We had so much fun we forgot to eat lunch!

After lunch (finally) and a nap on your part, it was time to PAR-TAY!

This year, we threw a John Deere tractor pool party.

Nothing else could suit you better.

 

So many friends and family came to celebrate your 3rd birthday!

Always remember it is a blessing to be so loved, Doodle Bug.

Even before you were born, you were loved: 

always have been, and always will be.

Work

"I need to work."

"What do you need to work on?"

"I'm just workin'."

If you've ever wondered what the work of a three year-old looks like, see below:

Evidence of work...

On the front door

On the coat closet door.

Also on the worker's bedroom door.

The foremans' office door. And bedroom door. And bathroom door.

And all the work completed here "because our house to be cool".

Here's hoping you have a handy helper at home too!

Dump Trucks

Dump Trucks

Dump trucks are fun in the road.

 

Dump trucks are fun in the warm sand, by the warm sea.

Dump trucks are fun in the cold with snow!

Dump trucks are fun to play alone,

But they are most fun to play with your dad!
