Brody's 3rd Birthday!!

Let's post about this one before it gets too crazy and doesn't happen.

Brody Vance turned 3!! WooHoo!! This kid..man, this kid is quickly discovering how to push buttons and make this life his own. I can only remember terrible 2's with Adalie, but both Brody and Cason it has hit a little closer to the 3 yr old mark for sure..it's more terrible 3's for us here.

He is in love with ALL the typical boy things....dirt, cars, trains, and food. Brody LOVES his food. He is our biggest and stalkiest kid yet, pretty much the same size as his older brother Cason - 2 yrs apart from one another. It doesn't help though that Cason eats like a bird and Brody is our human trash can and is CONSTANTLY hungry for something....good things though like his obsession with strawberries, oranges, and bananas - so can't complain too much on that one. This kid will be the one to eat us out of house and home one day. We call him our "line backer" baby, while Cason sees to be taking on the role of more of a "kicker".

My mom joined us last Thursday to come and help out while we wait around for Baby Girl, so it was fun to have her here for a little party with Brody. We also got to skype with Grandma and Grandpa Sorensen - which is always so fun to feel like they're apart of things here with us too. He wanted a batman cake, so I tried my best. He seemed happy so I guess I can't complain too much there. We also got the boys a combined gift this year they were pretty exited about - a trampoline!! Our tax returns have come in, so we feel momentarily rich and got one for the kiddos.It will be good though, my kids are outside kids and need ways to burn energy - fast. So, it seems like a good investment for now. Plus, we have the perfect yard for it at the moment and a sliding screen door I can just watch them from the living room and not have to be outside the whole time. Super nice perk.

Brody seemed pretty happy with his day. Since it's just been us on our own pretty much for years and years, it's a;ways a short little family affair. He got a Dr's kit from Grandmamma and Grandpa and a new game and movie from Grandma and Grandpa Sorensen. Happy 3rd Birthday Brod-ster. We love you bunches and we are so glad you joined our crazy little family - you make things fun. You think you are the funniest thing on Earth, and we are starting to agree. I see class clown in your future for sure...and I hope you always love to snuggle.
