Happy Birthday Spiderman!

It is hard to believe but our little buddy is 3 Years Old. I still can't wrap my head around it. I was looking at pictures the other day of when he was born and it really doesn't seem like that long ago.  He has just gotten so big.  Okay well not really... he still only weighs 28 lbs and is 3 feet tall.  He has been such a good boy and so much fun.  He amazes us by the things he says and is learning and keeps us laughing daily.  A few days before his birthday he got on a Spiderman kick and wanted EVERYTHING Spiderman.  As a mom you feel that you really have to come through for your kids and make their birthday special and just what they want.  Thank heavens for Amazons cheap overnight shipping!  Carson woke up so happy on his birthday and was so excited that he was 3.  Before his birthday he told me he just wanted to be 2, but on his birthday he let us know he was finally 3!  We had a great, but very busy few days while we celebrated.

We celebrated at home that morning. Carson and I went Burger King to get some breakfast and then we had a quick little party before Chill had to go to work.  The present of the day was of course the Spiderman costume which he wore for 3 days in a row!  I of course did what I said I would not do...I let him wear it out in public and to the zoo of all places.  He was the happiest boy alive so I think it was worth it.  It was a perfect day for the zoo.  The weather was FINALLY so nice!
















We had a little party at my parents house to keep the celebration going.  We ate Chinese food at Carson's request, he opened presents, and we had cake and ice cream. 









I think everyone is completely worn out...at least that's how it appears!


The following day we had a party with Chill's parents and some of our friends.  It was so fun to see everyone and spend time catching up.  Carson loved all the attention he got with his costume!

















 After the our friends left, we had a mini party with Chill's parents so Carson could open his presents from them.  The present of the night was a Spiderman bike (which I didn't get a picture of).  He was so excited.  He is still learning how to ride it, but he loves it!

Hey, you're only 3 once, so why not wear your costume for 3 days?! :) That makes me so happy.

What a darling boy!
