Zanthias is 3 today, and very excited about that. He loves to say, "Happy birthday!" We made an apple cake this morning. Then, Drew took off the afternoon and we went to Chuck E. Cheese (for the first time!) His friend Ezra also came (with his mom and little brother) They had lots of fun running from game to game, eating pizza and having cake. His friend got him a great pirate book.
We got him a copy of his favorite book, "Harry and Horsie" (I also bought the sequel "Cookiebot" but it hasn't arrived yet!) and some Tegu magnetic blocks. He loved them.
As long as the rain holds off, we are planning a trip to the playground or a walk around the neighborhood later.
Happy birthday to my crazy, amazing son. He's around 37 lbs and 37" right now. His vocabulary has increased so much, and he loves to talk and tell stories. His favorite things to do right now are read books, ride his "broom broom" (his balance bike), go to the playground, and play with cars or his baby doll. His favorite shows right now are "The Backyardigans" and "Blue's Clues". He is very kind to his sister, and working on this whole sharing thing. He loves animals and motorcycles. He's very sensitive and shows his feelings completely, good or bad. It's been an amazing year.
