Tate's 3rd Birthday!

On July 30th we celebrated Tate's 3rd birthday. 3 years already! Wow! Tate is such a fun little boy and makes us laugh every day. Ever since Halle was born he seems to have grown up so much...but he definitely still has his little temper tantrums and fits he throws. Typical 3 year old I guess. I want to be able to remember a few things he really likes at this age, so first of all he LOVES chocolate milk. Drinks it constantly. He also loves peanut butter, eats it by the spoonful. He loves playing baseball, basketball, and football with Austin. He loves to torture Halle, definitely can't leave them in the same room alone together. He loves nursery, loves to sleep at Grandma's, loves to play with his cars, and loves to be loud! He really is a sweetheart most of the time and we're so happy he's part of our family!

Anyways...we went to McDonald's for lunch for his big day. He invited his friend Cy to come along, it's so nice to have a friend for him that lives right across the street! They had lots of fun playing on the slides, but had the most fun watching and naming the cars that went by as they watched out the windows:)

My brother Brycen got married the night of Tate's birthday so it was a big celebration all around! We didn't really have a party for Tate, but he had tons of fun running around at the reception with Austin and some cousins, which was probably more fun for him than a party! After the reception we opened a few presents and had some cupcakes.

He was really into opening the presents this year, ripping the paper off as fast as he could with this intense look in his eyes, it was pretty funny.

He got some Toy Story legos... Some Handy Manny tools...

One of Austin's old nerf guns (Austin loves to wrap up his old stuff and give it away for birthdays and Christmas:))...

And some Toy Story figurine things.

We had cupcakes instead of a cake this year, lots easier for me and they turned out really yummy!

Family pic! Not a great one, and we're minus a little girl, and Tate was struggling with smiling normally that night, but oh well! Happy Birthday Tate, we love you!
