Scott is 3!!!

Today is Scott's 3rd birthday! Boy how time flies! He woke up early this morning very excited. I made our traditional birthday pancakes that we have whenver it is one of our birthdays (my mom started this tradition with us). We put a #3 candle in it and sang "Happy Birthday" to him. Then he had a present from us to open and a present from his favorite cousin, Anna! He loved them both! Robbie took the day off to spend time with Scott. They have headed off to the zoo and who knows where else! :) Scott was thrilled!!

Scott has brought so much joy to our lives. He is a interesting little boy with lots of different traits that make him that way! He makes us laugh all the time with his funny faces and silly gestures. One my most favorite things that Scott does right now is out of the clear blue he says "I love you" and gives us a great big kiss! Oh so sweet!! I remember Tyler doing that same thing at that age!

Scott is an active little thing who loves to run, play ball, ride his scooter, tackle Tyler, wrestle with Robbie, play with dinosaurs and cars and trucks, and chew on his "fluffy". Fluffy is his beloved blanket that he can't seem to part with...see the picture below! This entire year has brought about lots of changes and firsts for Scott. He moved to a big boy bed, he was finally potty trained at 2 1/2, he started preschool for the first time in August, he was in his first wedding this past summer, he went to his first Braves game, and last but certainly not least he has gained a big will and a way about him! :) He is a red head none the less and boy is it true that red heads can have tempers! The closer he's gotten to three the more he has let that shine through! But, thankfully he is excellent at school and at church for his teachers! Oh yea, he is going to be featured in a Red Head book that a lady in California has written. It's a children's book and it should come out in the next month or so. We can't wait to see it!!

Now check out some recent pictures of my little buddy!!
