Happy Birthday Brody!

On Saturday, August 22nd, our Little Wild Man turned 3 years old. It is so hard for me to believe that he is already 3! He is growing up way too fast!! It seems like yesterday that he was our little "buddha baby"(weighing 20 lbs at 6 months old) needing us to do everything for him. Now, he is preschool age, potty trained, and very independent.

"I'm fweee!"

Since he was the birthday boy, we let him make all of the plans for the day. He of course wanted to start the day by going to get his favorite breakfast, which is "gogurt/biscuit" from McDonalds. Most kids think of McDonalds for the fries and burgers, but Brody only thinks of McDonalds for the yogurt parfaits and egg biscuits. Once he finished eating his yogurt and egg biscuit, he wanted to go get donuts like we did for Colby's birthday. We normally don't eat 2 breakfasts, but he was the birthday boy! He picked out a pretty sprinkle donut, but of course did not like it once he took a bite. He only ate the donut holes again.

After breakfast was finally finished, he asked to go to the "green buggy store." That's right, he wanted to go shop at Publix on his birthday. This worked great for me, because I had to pick up a few things for his birthday dinner. We can't go to Publix without getting a free cookie, so he continued his breakfast with a chocolate chip cookie. I think it is safe to say that he had more sugar on this day than he has had in the last month!



We finished up our morning with playing upstairs, which is Brody's favorite thing to do right now. He loves "watching" movies while playing. He really just likes to change the movie several times. I am pretty impressed that he knows how to change the movie...he can work our audio/video equipment better than I can! It is sad when I have to ask our 3 year old how to fix something. Ha!!


After a quick nap for all of us, it was party time! We decided to keep Brody's birthday get together very small this year. We only invited family and a couple of neighbors that Brody plays with all of the time. Jason and I thought that a small and laid back party would be best for us this close to Colby's surgery. The weather was perfect, and I think everyone had a great time. I know Brody did! He is still talking about how much fun he had at his Spiderman bike party!
