Three

Our sweet, boisterous, hilarious, clever and caring little boy has turned three. He constantly cracks us up and challenges us with his intellect and charm as he shows glimpses of the special boy he is becoming.

A few of his recent musings and sayings:

Isla loves playing "I Spy" during long car trips and Lachy tries to join in. He almost has the hang of it...
"I spy with my little eye something beginning with... water/cow/tree."

During a recent sleepover at Nana and Grandads:

"Oh my gosh, I've never seen anything like that in my whole born life." Sometimes it is so hard to remember he is still so little!

Playing "What's the time Mr Wolf" at Easter whenever it was his turn each and every time he would declare "Dinner Clock". Then when he wanted to play again "Can we play 'What's the time Mr Fox'".

Today i got "Mum, will i be three forever now, or just for five minutes"?

He had his first solo swimming lesson today and managed to get over his fear and anxiety - I hate to see the internal battles our little man has but it makes me fiercely proud when he fights to be brave and wins.

Little buddy, we love your kind, kind soul, your love of silliness, word play and laughter. The way you can be felled by a gentle tickle to your neck and the way you complete our family. Happy Birthday sweet child x

Allowing his sister to help with present opening, especially card reading duties.

Opted for Kelly Tarlton's for his birthday outing.

Disastrous cake but covered in icing, sugar animals and candles he couldn't care less.

The day of Lachy's farm party dawned miserable and wet, wet, wet.

Yet the downpour and puddles were the highlight for some!

So teeny, he was just about doing the splits sitting on this pony.
