Jackson is 3!!

We have a three year old! I can't believe so much time has passed since our little baby was born but it has and he is a big boy. Auntie T and UK were able to come up to help us celebrate and we had a great weekend. This was Jackson's first real birthday party with friends, so it was a big event! The weather was perfect so we were able to spend the whole party outside. The kids played with dump trucks, diggers and cars, ate candy from the pinata and played "Pin the Tail on the Donkey" while the adults enjoyed libations. I think everyone had fun. I know we did!

Jackson's latest obsession is Wow Wow Wubbzy, so I promised him a Wubbzy cake. It took a lot of work and a few tears, but the look on the boy's face when he saw it was priceless and I'll never buy another cake again. Eat your heart out, Ace of Cakes!
Auntie T and UK had to work on Friday, so they didn't get here until after the boy's went to bed. They were so happy to wake up and have them here!

Jackson got to start the morning off by opening presents! Of all the loot, the biggest hit were books about...Wubbzy! He got three of them and now, three weeks later, I can read them all by heart. So can Jackson.

I'm pretty impressed that his favorite gift was a book. He got a camera, a big wheel, some paints and a bunch of outdoor toys. And all my boy wants to do is read. Yes!!

Having birthday dinner outside - hot dogs, Doritos and apple juice. Life is good! Happy Jacks!

We had a blast and I don't think I've laughed that hard in a long time. Sean and Amy you did great and it was fun meeting all your friends. Couldn't believe how big the Tuck is and has already changed sooo much. Feel like we are missing out. Love you guys!!!
