Rest of the birthday

October 26, 2015

Happy Monday! We had a really fun weekend – fall festivities are in full swing! Today let’s wrap up Spencey’s birthday celebrations! After his party on Monday, he got to take treats to school on Tuesday. He’s been loving Starbucks cake pops lately so I just got those to send! Perfect and easy!

He was pretty proud to go to school in his other new garbage truck shirt!

He was also pretty proud of the new Lego garbage truck that Maxwell “helped” him build! 🙂

We enjoyed having company here all week and loved getting to see Susu, Daddo and GJ!

A Garbage Truck Birthday!

October 23, 2015

Spencer got to pick the theme of his party this year and he’s loving garbage trucks right now so that was that!

We did it on a morning that school was out and kept it simple with just balloons, balls and a bounce house in the backyard. They didn’t have a garbage truck bounce house but Spencer saw the Monster Truck one and decided it would be perfect!

Maxwell even drew some special pictures to help decorate!  🙂

Spencer was pretty excited about his blue and “geen” garbage truck party and he really loved his new shirt!

We had so many good friends and family join to celebrate Spencey! It was a beautiful fall morning and perfect for playing outside.

The kids bounced and bounced and bounced and dug in the sand table and threw those big balls all over the yard!

Since the party was in the morning we decided to go with doughnuts instead of a cake. I think those kids liked the doughnuts better than any cake I could have given them!

and got a doughnut for each hand! He quickly ate the icing off of both, handed the remnants to GJ, and took off to keep bouncing! No better way to celebrate being 3!!

It was the perfect party for our perfect blonde-headed, blue eyed, happy little boy! Happy Birthday Spencey!! We love you!

Birthday dinner

October 22, 2015

On Sunday, after a trip home from NY and a soccer game for Maxwell, it was time to celebrate Spencer’s 3rd birthday! My parents and Susu were in town so we all headed to, where else? The orange mexaurant! Maxwell said we should call it the green mexaurant that night for the birthday boy! 🙂 We then went home for ba-nilla cake and presents. This little one was loving the attention…

Spencer is THREE

October 19, 2015

My baby boy turned THREE yesterday! Now, if you ask him, he’ll say he’s 8 but he hasn’t grown quite that fast! 😉 Spencer is a belly-laughing, joyful, stubborn, snuggly, light of my life. He’s at the height of cuteness right now and just about everything he says and does makes us smile.

and now THREE!!

Oh, he looks so grown up! As he likes to tell me “I not a baby. I a big boy!” Of course, sometimes he also says “I not a big boy. I a lion.”  🙂

This boy loves to love – he’ll take my face in his hands and plant a big kiss right on my lips! I love to get him up in the morning – when I pick him up from his crib he wraps his arms and legs around me in the biggest hug and, let me tell you, there’s no better way to start the day. He loves to be tickled and we always oblige because hearing his belly laugh is the BEST. He loves all kinds of trucks, trains, lions, dinosaurs and, most importantly, he loves Maxwell. or “Max-cell” as he says! They are two peas in a pod and he’ll do whatever Maxwell tells him to do…most of the time! His second favorite is Baby Mantha. He loves to get in her face and say “hi baby! hey baby!” Some other cute expressions he uses all the time are “easy does it!”, “that’s silly business!”, and “dat’s not nice!”. He’s mostly shaking his finger at Maxwell while saying that last one! ha! Spencer is just a funny little boy and, man of man, I love him so.
