BUBBA IS 3 !!!!!!!!

Opening his gift from Jenevive - his first action figure - welcome to the world of boys.

His new big boy bike was a gift from mom and dad.

Such a big boy already. I cry every time my children are sung to on their birthday-does anyone else do that????

Happy Birthday Jimmy!!!!! Jimmy turned 3 on Monday and we celebrated with a party at Pump-it-Up. For those of you who do not know what that is-consider yourself lucky. It is a "bouncing, sliding, ecstatic extravaganza" party as they call it. It is a party place with huge inflatables, loud music blaring and even louder kid's (18 of them ) screaming - I call it insane. Jen had her birthday there in August and since then, Jimmy has been talking about his party being there also.

So for almost 10 months we have been building up a big baseball themed party for him. Loving anything with a ball, he jumped on board. We bought all baseball paper products, baseball goodie bag stuff and Jim made baseball invitations. Everything was going good until we went to Sams to order the cake. As we were looking through the sample book, there it was...a Spiderman cake! He then wanted nothing to do with the baseball cake all he saw was the bright blue and blood red frosting and his hero Spiderman perched on a cake. It took a little while to talk him out of it, but the baseball cake was ordered with his picture on it and cupcakes with baseball rings in them, and a promise was made to have a Spiderman cake next year.

And most of his gifts had his new buddie's face plastered all over them. He got a bike, two scooters, an outfit, PJ's, swimimg suit, swim goggles,actions figures, underwear and a new backpack for school in the fall - all bright blue and blood red and you quessed it -Spiderman on it all. He had a great time and kept telling me all night 'Thank You Mama' -that makes all of the noise and hassle worth it. Happy Birthday my little Jim Bobby!!!! We Love You!!
