How can it be that he's already 3?

C.R.A.Z.Y! This is the only thing that comes to mind when I think about our sweet Landon turning 3! Three years ago today we started down the crazy road of parenthood. What an amazing three years it has been. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect little angel to jump start our journey. I feel like I've learned more in these last three years than I have in my entire life. Some days I feel like I could quite literally pull my hair out with the frustration these little boys cause me, but at the end of the day (once they're asleep in bed mind you) I'm reminded of how truly blessed I am to be a mother. What a gift...and what a responsibility! Landon is our super sweet and (for the most part) mild-mannered child who can be a little stubborn at times and is all B.O.Y! He reminds me of my little brother when he was a kid just wanting to get a stick and poke at things outside or kick the rocks and dirt or play with his cars. He loves to give hugs and kisses and is very affectionate. He doesn't ever seem to meet a stranger which makes new people and places that much more exciting. He's very inquisitive and enjoys exploring the outdoors. Oh, how we are so much in love with this precious little life! Happy Birthday Sweet Baby Little Boy! Check out Landon's Birth Story if you haven't already!

Sweet Landon, Our prayer for you is that you would one day realize where true joy comes from and that you would (sooner rather than later) enter into a personal relationship with your Lord and Savior. We pray that you don't become overwhelmed with the empty promises this world has to offer but would find true confidence and fulfillment in the One that can give you eternal life.

This morning we had a special birthday breakfast at IHOP with MiMi & Grandy!

Even though his party is not until the weekend, I had to give him at least one gift....his very own camera!

This afternoon I took Landon to the grocery store and let him pick out one of the little pre-made cakes to eat after dinner! I know we're having a party for him on Saturday, but it just didn't seem right to go through his actual birthday and not sing to him or let him blow out candles! This is what he chose...
