Happy Third Birthday, Owen!

My baby is THREE YEARS OLD.

How did that happen?

He woke up to a breakfast of a chocolate cupcake, topped with the ONLY thing he asked for for both Christmas and his birthday -- candy canes! :-)









That night, when Greg was home, we opened presents.  We were pretty excited to give him his giant fluffy soft "Frozen" blanket, since he's the world's biggest fan.  

He surprised us all by being SUPER unhappy about it :-)




Fortunately his new drum set cheered him up.





Rewatching (and rewatching and rewatching) his 'Santa birthday video', of the Portable North Pole Santa wishing him a happy birthday.  He is happily showing Santa he is '3' now, even though since this day he has gleefully insisted he is '2' to anyone who asks.
