Happy Birthday Bam!!!

Our little Bammy-Boy turned THREE on Tuesday. For the first time in the history of our kids, we didn't have a "friend party". It was just the family and Shelly. (Who is practically family, definitely our friend, but not a three-year-old.) I have to say, it was a lot less stressful and it didn't matter that I stayed in my p.j.'s for the whole entire day. From now on, our kids will only get a friend party every other year or so.



Now, for a little bit about Sweet Sammers

Dad: "What's your favorite animal?"
Sam: "Zebwa!"

Mom: "Sam, what's your favorite food?"
Max: "Is it Wice Kwispies?"
Sam: "WICE KRISPIES!"

Max: "What's your favorite toy?"
Sam: "Yightening McQueen!"

Shelly: "Sam, what's your favorite color?"
Sam: "Dat one!" (points at Lightening McQueen)

About the cake: Sam wanted a Bob cake and I wanted to make a lake out of blue Jell-o. (Who doesn't like blue Jell-o?) So we compromised and WAH-LAH!!! We have Bob sitting in front of a pile of dirt in front of a lake! He loved it so we both won.

Ooo that's awesome. How do you do that with the Jell-O?

Also no, Sam is not three and no, he can't talk. Sorry.

Whenever he was asked a question he would first say: Uh, um, uh ,um (while rolling his eyes around with his head) uh, um, uh, um. Then say the answer. He was very cute and kept saying: Tank you so much Mommy!!!

We've adopted Mom's every other year friend birthday party rule. It's fabulous. Odd years are family parties, even years they get a friend party AND a family party! Mom was a genius and I'm a genius for copying her! If only I would have gotten the cake decorating gene that you and Jenny got.

Can she build it? Of course Emmy can. Very cute. The snowman still reigns though!
