Happy 3rd Birthday Carson!

We tried something new this year and took Carson on a shopping spree for his birthday so he got exactly what he wanted. It was so much easier than me shopping for him and I still got a few surprise things for him to open.
My big 3 Year old!
We joined the Toys R Us Birthday Club and they give you a Coupon to use on your present ( a whopping $3. Thanks Toys R Us) and they gave him a balloon and made an announcement that it was his birthday while he was shopping.
Imagine my surprise when he wanted this train table, and I just got rid of ours.
What to choose? hmm.. so many great choices!
He ended up with lots of fun things. I'm not sure who enjoyed it more, him or I? We had a great time!
Birthday Breakfast!
FYI ~ Pajama bottoms only is the new way to sleep at our house.  I'm thinking its a boy thing?
Loving one of his presents!
Yes!
The R2D2 playdough set was a big hit.. Carson loves to play with playdough and could play for hours. 
Hendrix enjoying his pancakes
After breakfast gavin and Collin put on a Birthday show for Carson and we played hullabaloo!
Since we have had the flu we had a small birthday lunch for Carson with people who had already been exposed to us anyway.
Carson chose homemade macaroni and cheese, watermelon, carrots and green Jello.

Hendy is really attached to Papa.. Loves him!
Ashley gave him this cute yoda that he wouldn't part with... Yoda even had his own piece of cake.  Carson also did a wardrobe change once he opened his Star Wars Pajamas.
Happy Birthday to You.....
Make a wish!
Playing pin the tail on Pablo at the Backyardigans themed celebration! 
We Love our Mimi, she makes every event fun!
Carson absolutely loves this Plane that my parents got him.  Happy Birthday my sweet boy!  We love you so so much!
