Happy birthday 3.0


Dear John,

Recently I installed an app named Timehop. It helps you to remember moments that happened one, two, three or more years ago. On the first day I had the app, it showed me a Facebook post from 3 years ago.


Little did we know that you would make your appearance just one week later at 36 weeks. You were so tiny but perfect in every way! 

Now three years later, you are such an awesome little man. You light up a room with your dimpled smile and laughter. You are a loving little guy, always giving hugs and kisses! Lately you have come up to sit next to me on the couch placing your small hands one on my front and one on my back for the best hugs! I love it! You have always been cuddly from the moment you wake up until you fall asleep. Your check is against mine as we walk downstairs to breakfast in the morning to our nightly rocking in the chair singing a favorite song together.

As I am writing this, you are singing, clapping and dancing to Grover's sing and dance along. It is fun watching you and Addie play so well together. You love your sister so much. 

Here are the answers to your third birthday interview, our first with you. And boy was it hard to get the answers...it took 7 takes and we didn't get all of the questions answered. But here are the ones that we did:

Your birthday party was yesterday, but your birthday is tomorrow. Yesterday was the first time you have been healthy for a party. For your last birthday and Christmas, you were sick and didn't really get to enjoy the festivities. But you sute did have fun yesterday. I will finish this post off with some party pictures.
