Alton is 3!

Alton turned 3 in March:)  The week of his actual birthday was kind of blah with him being home sick from daycare for a few days and John was out of town for work.  Luckily we had his birthday party planned for a couple of weekends later and it was great.  We did a construction theme and he had a fun time opening his presents, having cupcakes and spending some time with his grandparents, aunt and uncles and family friends.  A few of our big boys favorite things right now are trucks, tractors and cars.  Chances are you can find a matchbox car on his person at just about any time of day:)  He loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and finally loves listening to stories being read to him.  He's a high energy boy who has amazing large motor skills.  He zips around on the scooter like a pro and loves throwing and kicking balls.  He's been talking more and more lately and has been pretty consistent with saying complete sentences.  His favorite foods right now are blueberries, grape juice, sausage, and peanut butter toast! 

Big boy opening presents!

Daddy's boy of course wanted daddy to help him open his presents:)

Yeah!  Another truck! He can't get enough trucks, that's for sure.  He calls them all his 'work trucks'.

Someone suddenly became shy when we started singing happy birthday to him.  He's wearing his new Packers jersey he got from us.  He wanted to put it on over his clothes the second he opened it:)  He would wear it to school every day if we would let him! 

Yum!  Chocolate cupcakes:)  Happy Birthday Alton!
