My Baby is 3!!!!

My little guy turned 3 years old on Jan. 7th. I am amazed at how quickly he is growing up and he is so much fun. Grady constantly keep us laughing. He says and does some of the funniest things. MY 3 Favorite things about Grady right now are:
1. His Alvin-Alvin dance (you just have to see it to appreciate it)
2. The way he says "Thanks Mom" about everything
3. The way he cries for his daddy when he is in trouble with me.
This year we had a combined birthday party with Grady and his little buddy named Cooper who just turned 4. It was a huge hit. The theme of the party was tractors and so every little boy was in tractor heaven. We had tractor cake, tractor hay rides, and tractor gifts. We also had a potato bar for lunch which I thought was great since it was pretty darn cold outside, those nice warm potatoes and chili were perfect. Grady and I as the tractor is about to head out for the hay ride. I know he looks really thrilled, but he did enjoy it. He kept saying that we were faster than the other tractor (because we were leading the way) and "where is this hay ride going?". We are blessed with amazing friends that loaded up trailors with hay and brought their tractors over to pull this HUGE group of family and friends.
This was the most random present opening ever. We were waiting for the second trailer to get ready for the hay ride (since we had a large group) and so we decided to open presents and it was kind of like a free for all, funny.


The boys playing on the big tractors before the festivities began. I guess they felt they should check them out beforehand just to make sure we wouldn't have any problems with them later, ha ha.
"Hey Grady, everything looks good here, what about from your view?"
"Yep, we are good to go"


Thanks to Brooke for being my party planning buddy and to all the help of our friends and family for making Grady and Cooper's party a success. I know my family enjoyed it so much we all came home and slept for like 2 hours.
