After counting down for weeks and weeks, March 25 finally arrived. Palmer was so excited about his birthday and had big plans for the day.
As has become a new tradition, we started the morning with lights on the stairs...
...and birthday pancakes with candles.
Palmer learned how to cut properly with a fork and knife last week and is very big into practicing. Look at the concentration.
Next up was present time. Mid-Christmas morning, Rick and I looked at each other and decided that Palmer had enough presents, so we snuck away with one unopened big present: a guitar. Three months later, Palmer got to open this present. And yes, I left the Christmas paper on. This child could care less and does not know the difference! ha.
The guitar was a huge hit and Palmer quickly made Rick go upstairs to get his guitar.
Too bad neither guy has a clue how to play...
At school, Palmer was welcomed by a birthday sign and learned that he shared a birthday celebration with another little girl in his class. Palmer was very proud of the M&M cookies that he picked out for the morning snack.
In the evening, we celebrated over cake with some neighborhood friends. As requested, Palmer had a "vanilla on the bottom, chocolate on the top, M&Ms and strawberries on top" cake. It was a dry run for the full cake that I'll put together at Saturday's party.
This boy was a tad excited about his cake!
One more present from Palmer's friend Charlotte: a child's digital camera. I
recently mentioned Palmer is a fan of taking pictures and already loves this new toy!
What a fun day! We'll continue to celebrate our three-year-old with a party this weekend.
