James Birthday

My baby boy is THREE!! How the time does fly...

The day began with James opening his gift from GrandMary. And, since it is Friday he was able to wear this adorable outfit to school. I LOVED this Gymboree line... he has quite a few pieces from it!

We had friends over to celebrate with pizza for dinner. Evan and Caleb are just cute, cute little redheads!

A face that mommy loves... even with lots of pizza sauce!James went upstairs with Jemma and Mya just before dinner and reappeared dressed in this outfit. Gotta love having a big sister...Piper is an excellent eater!Colton... a new big brother and so, so cute!

There were only two men who could make the celebration and you could tell that there were kids who missed playing rough with their Daddies... poor Rob!

Then it was time for cake! Bloom has such fresh and yummy chocolate cake. There will be a pirate themed cake for James' party at MyGym later.

James requested cupcakes with sprinkles, so made a batch for the kids!

Just before bed, we skyped with GrandMary. She got James paints and brushes and art supplies... he opened them while we were skyping and then he and Jemma went to paint immediately! Thankfully, they were washable paints because there was a lot of paint on our newly painted walls!

And yes, James dressed up again after our guests left...
