HAPPY BIRTHDAY LANDON!


Today is Landon's 3rd birthday - I can't believe it! When Brayden was 3 he was so old and mature and responsible (or something close to that) and Landon is just so....not. Landon is my party guy, my funny man, my wild card. If he does a handful of things I ask him to do all in one day, it's a good, amazing day. Landon is just such his own person and I love that. I love his independence and free spirit. I've said this before, but he is seriously one of the funniest people I have ever met. I could post everyday with something funny that he has said or done.

Landon had a fun birthday today starting with a trip to build-a-bear this morning. He picked out a cute dog, dressed him in football clothing, and named him "Danny Doggy." Landon's little dream of owning a doll stroller even came true and "Danny" now has a new ride. Landon pushed his little stroller all over the mall and as weird as it is to get a 3 year old boy a doll stroller, Landon loves it and admittedly, Landon makes doll strollers look good. :) We had a little family party tonight full of pizza, chocolate cake, and lots of great presents from grandparents.

I am posting a couple of videos of Landon that I have taken the last 2 days (I apologize in advance for the quality...they got grainy when I shrunk the file size.) This first video is of the boys swinging in the backyard yesterday. I was floored when I looked out the window and saw Landon pumping himself! In this video clip I asked him where he learned to do that and he said, "Brayden learned to me how, so now I know how!" I'm glad his English is so good. :)



So you can all feel a part of our celebrations, here we are singing to Landon tonight and him blowing out his candles on his cake. Green is his favorite color in case you couldn't tell!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LANDON!

I love that little man. Everytime I see pictures on your blog I honestly smile ear to ear and just laugh to myself that you have such a funny amazing little boy who just happens to be the spitting image of his uncle Paul. Green is also my favorite color by the way :) I need to stay updated on those boys birthdays so they know growing up that they're aunt Jessica and Uncle Paul are thinking of them.

how fun! but i have to ask, how do you keep sane with such an independent child? i have one and i think the Lord keeps adding to my child's craziness because i haven't learned how to deal...what's your secret? your kids are so adorable!

Happy Birthday Landon! I can't believe that he is 3. Landon has always been sooo adorable to me. I'll never forget how agreeable he was...I could ask him anything and he'd say "yes". Thank goodness he has Brayden to learn him how to swing and especially to tell him how old he is....ha!! I love oldest children. There's just no way anyone in the family would be able to anything without us!!!

Also...thanks for your fun comment on our adoption plans. I absolutely love you tons!!!
