He's been doing the "2 fingers on one hand 1 finger on the other" bit all day. When I bring out the camera though he gets shy...that's when daddy steps in and does it for him :)
Where did the time go?? Why am I so wistful these last couple of weeks?? Why, oh WHY did I have my children whose birthdays are so close together? I needed to spread the melancholy out a bit, dammit. If there is another baby, it's gonna have to be a February baby!
Up next, the party at Caesarland tomorrow night. I'm guessing he will LOVE it and that we will have a VERY difficult time pulling him away from all the EXTRAVAGANZA that *is* Caesarland long enough to eat pizza or open presents!
Shhhhh, we got him skates! And pads and a helmet. Carlos is beside himself with excitement. He's been waiting three long years to introduce this kid to skates. Jake's been a master with a hockey stick for quite some time but skates...this opens up a whole new world of possibilities. Must admit, I'm a bit excited myself. Don't spoil the surprise for Jake though ;)
I'll try to update with a couple of party pics tomorrow...wish me luck!
Happy Birthday to Jake!

ReplyDeleteHappy Happy Birthday Jake! How fun for him to get skates!! Love the picture Erica.....and I'm pretty melancholy over John turning 3 on Saturday......no plans for him as far as a party go :(
ReplyDeleteWow, three's HUGE... and Feburary babies are nice, you're not TOO hot during the summer, and you can just hang-out in January. :) Cesarland sounds interesting... at best. :)

ReplyDeletei feared the close together birthday thing w/ my boys.. their due dates were a week apart, but their birthdays are 6 weeks apart thanks to one being early and the other being late. i don't think i could have handled their bdays any closer!
Yay for Jake!! The big THREE!!! Before you know it, you'll be in my shoes, taking him to Kindergarten *tear*!
