Well despite Jameson saying he didn't want to get bigger, my boy turned three! Initially he was excited knowing after Kaden's party was his but then suddenly and very seriously he declared he wanted to stay little! He said he needed to find a way and was going to "talk to his teacher, Mr Cornjacks (at pirate school)and see if he knew a magic way to stay little. As his birthday got closer he seemed less concerned about growing older and more focused on cake, his party and presents!
He had a lovely pirate party at camp with all his best buds over the weekend and on his actual birthday, Thursday got to go to Dunkin donuts to get a coolata and donuts for breakfast, then to dance class where his friends sang to him. He came home and ate lunch and icecream cake and opened a couple of presents from us. He was delighted with gummy bears and a jake the pirate book and notebook! Then off to the older kids' track meet. The town of Casco even had fireworks for him on his birthday! He continues to celebrate by having us put candles in left over cake and sign each time he eats some. (And by eat some, I mean lick the frosting off!)
The kid is a delight! He has the best manners. He thanks us for everything and always rushes to the door when I get home from work to ask how my day was. It's adorable. He says he is going to be a football player when he grows up. he loves eggs, blueberries and Mac and cheese. He likes to jump on the "bounce-O-leen" and swing, read (the same books over and over again) and play with the big boys. Jake the pirate is his favorite show (only one really). He continues to be an amazing big brother- not a day goes by where he doesn't say, "oh they're so cute!" I had said I would cut his hair by his 3rd birthday, but I take it back. It's so curly and lovely in the summer heat- maybe in the fall...
