Happy 3rd Birthday Will!!!

Will was officially 3 at 1:40 pm today. He had a great time at his family birthday party this weekend. He recieved some nice new toys...his favorites are as of today are his John Deere hay baler, cutting food pizza and his BIG dump truck! I cannot believe 3 years have past. I feel so blessed to have a beautiful (can I say that?) and healthy little boy!!!

Cupcake Time!

Mommy and Daddy took cupcakes to Will's school today. We got there a little early so we got to sit with him while he ate lunch. He was excited to see us and wanted to show us how he did things at school. The kiddos liked the cupcakes. Some ate the whole thing and some just licked the icing off. The director came by and asked whose birthday it was and Will yelled "mine" and had cupcake all over his face! It was very funny. He also told her he was three..which is funny because he has refused to tell us he is three...he says 2 and a half and then laughs.

Mommy and Daddy are about done making preparations for Will and Ben's family birthday celebration this weekend. Meme, Pop Pop, Papa Lee, Nana and Nanny are making the trip from MS. Daddy is making some homemade bar-b-que and it is really good....we had a sample for dinner the other night. Mommy has been trying to clean but usually feels like a futile effort!

John Deere Party (Cake #2)!

Will had his 3rd Birthday party today at The Little Gym. He had a blast. He was non-stop playing and smiling! I am happy to say that all the kiddos seemed to have fun and only one boo-boo! Will was thrilled with his John Deere tractor birthday cake. I think Will's favorite thing was when he got to sit in the middle of the parachute and we sang happy birthday to him!

We appreciate Gigi and Uncle Robby for babysitting Ben at the party. Ben had fun walking around and playing with the balls and bubbles. I will post some more pics later!

And he is off!!!

Ben is a walking pro now...No more arms up by the head. He is squatting to pick things up and returning to stand. The funniest is him walking around and following Will.

Will had his first gym class without mommy today. He did really well. Ben really enjoyed walking around and exploring the waiting area.

Tomorrow is Will's party so I hope all goes well!!! Gigi and Uncle Bub are coming to babysit in the morning while Mommy and Daddy go to a training at church. We are going to be facilitating a Finanical Peace class starting next week until May.

Birthday Prep

Will had a good week at school. He is starting a new gym class tomorrow. It will be his first where Mommy does not go in with him...knowing Will this will be no big deal. I just hope he does not try anything too crazy!

We are preparing for his 3rd birthday party on Saturday. I just hope he has fun and that all goes well. I made some candy suckers the other day to give to the kiddos (with Gigi's help). They turned out really cute.

I have not talked about the party too much so he won't be asking about it 24/7. Next week we will take cupcakes to school and then we will have another party with all our family to celebrate Ben's 1st and Will's 3rd birthday together.

Thank goodness for school!

Will went back to school today! He needed to go badly. He has been a handful the past couple of days but I am sure the weather is not helping. Usually we are running late and are at the end of the carline..well this morning we were the 7th car in line! I hope he is having a good day. Ben and I have enjoyed some quiet together and I have got to make some important phone calls. It feels good to have a little sanity now and then.

Birthday Cake #1

Mommy's first birthday

Well, we finally celebrated my birthday on Friday. We had some homemade chili that Daddy made and then some yummy cake..thanks Publix! Anyways, we had a nice day with my family and Will loved the cake! I got some free time to work on a project while Gigi and Uncle Robby watched Will and Ben. Daddy has been working on his garden for this spring. Hopefully we won't gain too much weight eating cake because we have 3 more to go this month!
