Yes we now have a 3 year old!!

Kyler had his third birthday this week. We did what we could to make it a good week for him. I had no idea what pressures it was for parents to create a magical memories, until I became one! My parents made it seem so natural! Anyways here are some pictures of the highlights of the week.
It started off with our first real boy accident. Kyler went to jump out of the minivan when his foot got caught in the diaper bag and he fell head first out of it onto the concrete.

Then of course it was St. Patricks Day and we woke up to find that the Leprechauns brought us a kite!
On his birthday we took Eldon to a friends house and picked up Papa for lunch at our cities finest . . .McDonalds!
Then we were off to the park to enjoy the beautiful spring like weather (that has since disappeared under a layer of snow!)

Travis didn't get home until late so here is Kyler waiting for Travis so that we could open presents and eat cake.

We opened the presents that we got him and also the ones from Grandma and Grandpa Hogman (Which he is opening in this picture and thank you because he loved everything!)

Here he is with all the gifts he opened that day.

Then on Saturday we had his first ever friend party! There were eight little kiddies running around and I learned so much about what to do and not do for next time! But everyone seemed to have a great time! And of course here is the much anticipated train cake. I was pretty proud of it! Thanks to my parents and Steve and Vashti with all their help at the party! They were lifesavers!

Then we went back to our house flew the kite for a little bit then had a dinner of waffles, bacon, and sausages (I know very healthy!). Then he opened the last of his gifts. Here he is with all the gifts he opened that day!

He is so great! I love him so much! He's a great kid and I hope you all get to meet him some day because I think he's pretty spectacular!

P.S. Mom and Dad Hogman . . .Today we started watching Pinocchio and this is what Kyler looked like when he was watching it. Thank you again!

Look at the huge gash!! Boys will be boys! They are crazy!! I hope it healed quickly and without a big scar! It looks like he forgot all about it at his party though! They bounce back so fast!!
Happy Birthday Kyler!!
