I cannot believe Preston turned 3 today! He got a little confused as to how old he actually is, b/c we had so many different "birthdays" for him - he kept saying he was 4 today b/c he was 3 yesterday! :) I guess we won't have 3 or 4 different parties for him anymore! Price Cutter sent us our coupons for a free little cake and ice cream for his birthday so we did that cake on Tuesday last week, then we had his birthday party on Saturday, a "cow" birthday on Sunday before Grandma Joyce and Grandpa Butch left and then told him that today was his actual birthday - I guess that is a little confusing! He loved every second of it though.
He had a fantastic time at Jumpin Joey's, a bounce house, with about 9 friends. They jumped in about 5 or 6 different inflatables for a little over an hour, then had pizza, cake and punch and then Preston opened his presents (which he loved everyone of course!) and then Joey came out for a visit and Preston could not get enough of him!
Sunday, I made him a cow cake - which I got a lot of flack for while I was making - but I think it turned out pretty good. Preston loved it! Today he ate one of his ears! Chloe and Preston both ,of course, loved licking the icing off the spatulas after I was done decorating, as well as the actual cake.
Today, they got to stay home with Grandma Jackie while she was in town for a long weekend. It is so nice to not have to wake them up in the mornings to go to daycare/preschool.
Chloe is not much of a baby anymore :( She has been trying really hard to sing the ABC's. She gets "A, B, C," then lots of E's; when we sing it to her she yells out "K" when you get there. I just want to bottle her up right now and keep her like she is for just a little bit longer than how long she'll stay this way.
I condensed the pictures below with little collages of different events - I hope you can see all of them! Click on each one and it will make it bigger if necessary.
1st birthday celebration!

Preston's first movie theatre experience! Winne the Pooh - he loved it!
He sat through the whole movie without a peep
I think we will for sure get Chloe a couch for Christmas this year
