PARTY TIME!

Maclain had an absolute BLAST yesterday! He officially turns 3 tomorrow, so Jared and I will be hanging out with him all day!! Here are some pics and video that highlight the day!







This is how the day began! Around 5ish in the morning, Maclain came crawling into our bed. Can you tell it took him a while before he finally settled in and went to sleep?





Maclain was SOOO excited about his Mickey Mouse Clubhouse "Jump and Dance" (A Maclain original terminology). He yelled the magic words "Meeska Mickey Mickey Mouse" (Officially pronounced something like Meeshka Mooska Mickey Mouse), and Daddy pushed the magic button and the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse appeared!! I wish I had caught the amazement in his eyes on video!


Time for our Mickey ears!!!! Notice the "3" on Maclain's shirt. Anytime anyone asked him how old he was, he just pointed! He can sometimes be a man of few words!




LUNCHTIME with a couple of friends!



This was probably Maclain's favorite part! :) He's so lucky to have both sets of AMAZING grandparents!! He even had a very special visit from his Great Granny from Birmingham! He just loves Granny!


Now... Check out the coordination in this video! :) This was his first attempt at the "Jump and Dance". As you can tell, he didn't have it all figured out, but he sure was having fun with it regardless! Today he is covered in bruises, and I'm still working to get all the dirt from underneath his fingernails!


As we started singing Happy Birthday, Maclain sang along. It was so cute! Also pay attention to how quickly he jumped up to blow out his candles. He has talked about his candles, and showed us how he was going to blow them out at least a hundred times in the past two weeks! :) As soon as I pulled the cake out while I was setting up, he started asking me to light the candles!

I never knew I could love someone SO much!!!

Happy 3rd Birthday Sweet Baby Boy!
