My oh my. Just like that, February has come and gone and here we are at birthday #3 for the boys. It's difficult to believe that they are 3, but at the same time, they are so grown up that they ought to be 3. Our boys. Growing up. They are on the tail-end of potty training, they got big boy beds (bunk beds unbunked right now), they're becoming more and more independent each day. Even Nick.
This has all happened so quickly. It's what you hear when you have kids - they grow up quick and when you're living it every day, it feels anything but quick. However, the overall time goes by in a flash.
Today, on their 3rd birthday, we went to Heritage Farms in Plano, this little museum, outdoor area with animals and old houses. Gracie loved it. The boys were interested in it for about an hour. Then, I took Gracie to pick out presents for her brothers. She got each of them an apron (fitting because everyone except the boys have aprons), whiffletree ball baseball bats and balls, a precious book, some gummie worms and a balloon. Perfection.
Steph made them a sweet little chocolate cake that was a street/racetrack thing and they thought it was the best thing ever. Besides Gracie's presents, of course. We went outside and I taught them all how to swing a baseball bat. Awesome moment. Gracie and Max actually did really well for their first time. Nick wanted to swing on the swing more than anything.
It was a fun day.
You guys mean everything to us, you should know.
I love you with every bit of my being.
Happy birthday.
