Happy 3rd Birthday Davis!

Yesterday was Davis’s 3rd Birthday.  I can’t believe that it was 3 years ago that he was just a little baby!  (Okay, let’s be honest, he was never actually a “little” baby at 11 lbs, but still a baby).  He is a funny boy and we love to have him in our family.  He likes to be silly and make everyone laugh, either with funny faces or silly words.  He is definitely the entertainer of our family.  He is a good big brother and little brother, always taking good care of James, and also playing with Landon and being a good sport when Landon bosses him around.  He does okay playing by himself while Landon is at school, but he is always very excited for him to get home, and starts asking me when he’ll be home sometimes an hour or more before he will be.   He loves to run and jump, and he is fairly tough, usually getting right back up after he gets a bump or a bruise.   He knows all his letters, and he likes to ask what different letters say.  He can count to 12, then throws in some “teen” numbers in no particular order until he gets to 20.

Davis also still loves Lightning McQueen and all of the cars, so we had a little Lightning McQueen party for him on Sunday with some family friends.  We had tacos for dinner, and we played Cars bingo and Cars guess who.

Yesterday, for his actual birthday, he wanted pizza for dinner.  We had pizza and some strawberries and cucumbers with ranch since those are all his favorites.  Kelly stopped by, and we opened his presents from us, his grandparents, and aunts and uncles.  It was a fun birthday!
