Birthday week

Along with moving into our new house, we got to celebrate two birthdays this week: Grant Boy's and mine. For months Grant has been asking, "Is it my birthday yet? Is it March?" so he was one happy boy when we finally got to celebrate. We did an early birthday party for him while Popsy and Tim and Paul were still here, and our friends the Crittendons, the Kuettels, Miss Pam, and Miss Deanie joined us.

Of course Grant got breakfast in bed. He chose sticky buns and fruit.
Do you think he's excited about all of this?
He kept driving the cars and trains around the cake, then he got to lick all the frosting off. :)
The new Mater scooter from Popsy and Nana has already gotten hours of use. Thanks!
Along with trains and cars, one of Grant's new loves: firetrucks. Thanks for the new puzzle, Nana and Grandpa!
Grant and I went on a date to the mall to ride the carousel and the trains and get a treat on his birthday. It was a happy time for me to enjoy my little boy. I can't believe my baby is three! Although he has his sassy moments, he is such a sweetheart.
My birthday followed Grant's, and although I didn't get any cars or trains, I had a happy day. Kimball surprised me by making me breakfast in bed, all by himself. :) Some friends took me to brunch, I got to go shopping, we had dinner at the park as a family, and I took my kids to swimming lessons. I loved all the phone calls and thoughtful gifts from my family and friends. Thanks everyone! I'm looking forward to a new year.
