Jackson is 3!!!! January 9, 2011

Our baby boy turned 3 on January 9th! I know it sounds cliche but I honestly cannot believe it. He's a little boy now instead of a baby or toddler. Jackson had a great birthday. Jake had to go to work later that day, so we decided to have Jackson's party later in the week. We saved some of Jackson's presents for the party so he only got a couple on his actual birthday, but he was thrilled and so excited to be such a big boy! He came into our bedroom on his birthday morning and crawled into bed with us and with a huge grin said, "I'm three!". It was so super cute.

"Cheese!"


"I'm three!"


Jessie completes his Toy Story set. (Funny story on this gift--Jackson had been obtaining all the Toy Story characters for Christmas and he kept telling me while he was playing with them that he still needed Jessie. He would go grab whatever random stuffed animal was lying around and call that Jessie. So, I bought the Jessie doll for him to complete the set and when he opened it up he started crying and told me it was a "girl toy". I felt sooooo bad. But I explained to him that Andy in Toy Story had a Jessie doll and he is a boy, and pretty soon Jackson was thrilled to have a completed set!



The Wednesday following Jackson's birthday we had a party at Maxis Pizza. That's the place Jackson chose when asked, which we were thrilled with because A)it cost a lot less money that Hop To It or something like that, and B)it was a lot more fun for all the adults at the party and C)it was a lot easier on Jake and me. So Maxis it was.

Thanks to my wonderful mom who made the Buzz cake!!!! I had decided since the party was going to be on a night where I worked the whole day, I wouldn't make a fancy cake, but just do cupcakes. Then my mom saw the Buzz cake pan and couldn't resist making it for Jackson and he was soooo excited!

Presents! Just as exciting for all the guests as Jackson...

Presents are fun!

Thanks to all our family and friends who helped us celebrate Jackson turning 3!
