I know this is long over due but Garrett is 3!!! Yea!

We partied all weekend and thanks to all who helped us celebrate. It all started off with our family party at the house. We rented a bounce house and everyone had a great time. We wanted Garrett to be able to enjoy all of his guests so we split up his parties. It worked out great and he was able to spend time with everyone. So, we had a bounce house and then Branden showed off his mad grilling skills by grilling up hamburgers and hotdogs. But it was James who made the burgers and added the extra love. We bounced all day long and I was very sore the next day.

Sunday was Garrett’s actual birthday so we headed to Starbuck’s like we do every Sunday and he had a birthday doughnut. Then we went to the King’s house and Garrett ran around there until lunch time. We stopped at Sonic for G’s favorite lunch then home for a nap. For dinner we went to Bari’s a great restaurant for pizza then to Baskin Robin’s for birthday ice cream.

On Monday we had a party with his friends at Bounce World. Yes, he loves to bounce! Then off to lunch for pizza again. He loved every minute of it.

We had so much fun!

I can already tell that this year is going to be harder than last year. I’m not sure who came up with the terrible two’s but they got it wrong, it is the terrible three’s. Last year was great. As we approached his birthday we could see changes in him, some for the good and some not so much. It is like Garrett woke up and decided that he wasn’t going to be bossed around anymore. Don’t get me wrong he is still having more good days than bad but I have no warning when his switch is going to flip. And it is usually the situations that I think are going to be fine when he loses it, and the ones that I think are going to be challenging he is great. He is certainly keeping me on my toes that one.

Anyway, Garrett is three! Raise a glass ’cause Mama is going to be drinking!

P.S. There are new pictures up but not all of the ones that were taken at the party. Someone who shall remain nameless but is playing guitar hero right now needs to put them up.
