Getting ready...

Mom requested I blog so this is what's on my mind at the moment. I'm getting so excited for Gavin's birthday this weekend! We're having an UP birthday party since Gavin LOVES (quite possibly an understatment..) the movie. He is always talking about Mr. Fredricks (I'm no sure if 3 syllable words are hard when you're 2 because he has a hard time saying Frederickson) and his house flying.

I don't want to give away all of the details until I have pictures, but let's just say the day will include A LOT of balloons! Here is a picture of the invitation. It obviously has our address, but since my blog isn't private...I'm keeping that a secret :) There will be 16 little ones if everyone comes. Not sure if that will be fun or crazy! At least the weather looks like it will cooperate. Now if we could just not get so much wind around here!

I can hardly believe that my first baby is turning 3! I don't know where the last 3 years of my life went...it feels like it has just flown by. He is so amazing and he seems so grown up and smart to me. I know I am bias as his mother, but I think he is amazing. His speech is fabulous, although I was telling my mother in law tonight that I sometimes wish he would just stop talking for a minute! He amazes me with his imagination. He is so creative and always playing pretend. It's fun to be able to play with him at this stage in life and see all of the things he comes up with. I love the funny things he says and how when you're totally not expecting it, he can be so incredibly sweet. I don't want to miss a second of this.

Check back soon for the big party update!
