Happy 3rd Birthday Grayden!

I seriously can't believe I have my very own THREE year old! SO WIERD!
You unfortunately got sick with a cold on your actual birthday. We just celebrated with a cupcake and you got to open a present from us...... BUZZ LIGHTYEAR! Thank goodness you were all healthy again for your party the following weekend!
It was so much fun and mommy and daddy went ALL OUT !!! It was so much fun to plan and decorate! We made you a really cool train/Toy story cake, and I also attempted to make Mr. Potato head cake pops! They turned out AWESOME!!! It's so much work doing the cakes let alone adding cake pops, but it worth all the work. Mommy, Auntie Tare, Auntie Sasha, Nana and Papa were up until 1 or 2 am talking and laughing while we decorated your cake/cake pops. Good memories!

Grayden is officially potty trained! That has to be the most exciting news to write about. Three YEARS of changing your butt and we are FINALLY done! You have the occasional accident of course but that doesn't happen very often. Your talking has definitely improved. You are now speaking in sentences but you have difficulty sounding certain words which makes it difficult for others to understand sometimes. You have difficulty sounding out the letters c,r,j,k and s'.

You are still obsessed with Dinosaurs, Trains, and "woody n buzz".
You like to call your papa and nana most mornings. You'll hand mommy the phone and say, "mommy, Papa and Nana please". Hearing your voice melts there heart every time.
You are still taking your naps everyday for at least a couple hours (sometimes 3)
You LOVE to play hide n seek, and ring around the rosy.
Your favourite snacks are PICKLES,cheese, carrots, or almonds and raisins. Your favourite lunches are dinosaur grilled cheese sandwiches. Oh, and you are obsessed with cakes!! You LUB cake!
You love to wrestle with your daddy ! You say "daddy wanna piece" "yah I wanna pice too" as you put up your fists ...TOO CUTE!
When it's time for bed you need to have mommy sing "twinkle little star" or as you like to say Mommy "tinckle iddle dar please"
You love being a big brother and you are very protective over him. You like to wrestle him and Im so impressed by how careful you are even when your laying on top of him LoL.

you are one special boy! You make mommy so happy every time I look into those sweet eyes of yours. You melt my heart everytime you wrap your arms around me or the moments you tell me you love me out of the blue. I am the luckiest mommy in the world!
Happy 3rd Birthday big guy :)

My little mimicker

Well I think this is when i start posting an update every 6 months but you have changed so much this last month I just had to do an update!
Its your 13 month Bday and in just one month you have learned so much! You are what I call my little mimicker right now. You try to say anything and everything. I can't believe how many words you can actually say! It's so foreign to me at this age because Grayden was the complete opposite. He would NEVER mimic anything we said, it was on his terms and when he felt like it.
Here are a few words you can already say:
Hi, Bye bye, Mama, Dada, Papa, Nana, Kir (Kiara), choo choo tane (choo choo train) onah (jonah, baba (baby), banana and alot more i cant think of right now. But you attempt to say anything I try to get you to repeat!
-one proud mommy over here!
