HAPPY BIRTHDAY CONOR!!!

Conor turned 3 yesterday!!!!! We had been counting down the days for about the last week, so when he woke up while I was in the shower, he came running in and told me, "Mom, it's my birthday. I'm threeeeeee!" Overnight, Daddy had blown up some balloons to decorate the living room to help make his day special.
In the morning, he got to open one small present...a couple packages of Toy Story 3 gummy candy and his own Toy Story 3 popcorn box with a pack of microwave popcorn!Then, while Mommy was at work, Daddy took Conor and Riley to the splash park. When they got home, Conor decided he wanted to "take a rest" on the chair...he made himself nice and cozy, Adam later moved him to the couch where he got a crook in his neck anyway (not sure he would have done any better in this position in the chair).After I got home from work and he woke up from his nap, we went to dinner. Though he had been talking about Applebees for two days as his restaurant of choice, he switched to Red Robin at the last minute. They gave him an ice cream sundae and 3 balloons for turning 3 years old and sang him their Happy Birthday song. We came home to find one more--very large--present in our living room...A pirate ship water table that he was so excited about and couldn't wait to put together.
Then he got to watch "Althin and the Chickmunks" (as he said). He would sit to watch, but stand up and dance around every time they sang a song. It was really cute.

Playing with his new water table today...wanted Daddy to put it together first thing this morning, even before breakfast! Soaked through two pairs of shorts and underwear before finally just pulling his swim trunks out. He is having a blast! HAPPY BIRTHDAY LITTLE MAN! We love you and are so glad you are a part of our lives. Daddy said yesterday, "Although 3 years has gone by so fast, it is hard to remember what life was like before him." So true!
