Our Big Boy

Turning 3 is just this exciting!

Donald has been talking about his birthday for weeks. He's had it all planned out because he's been so excited. In preparation for turning 3 he potty trained, because that's what big boys do. He's also amazed us with getting dressed on his own every morning and then in his pjs at night. He even started making his own bed. The best part for him about being a big boy is playing Wii! He loves Wii. He's especially good at Wii sports resort sword fighting and basketball. He's won first place a couple times on Mario Kart.
For his birthday he asked for a basketball hoop and a Wii Monster Truck game. While he plays basketball he calls himself Jimmer and I get to be the radio announcer shouting out Jimmer's every move. It's pretty entertaining. He's learned all the names of the Monster Trucks on his game and before his birthday he wanted me to find monster truck clips on You Tube every day. Boys are so predictable, balls and trucks are all they need.
Oh, and of course dinosaurs and weapons! He got dinosaurs from a friend and he got some guns and a sword from his brothers.
His other cute obsession is Pokemon. His sisters have a bunch of Pokemon cards and it's so precious to hear him rattling off all the Pokemon names. It sounds like jibberish to me but they all love Pokemon.
I had to include a couple more pictures of Donald and his cake because he's just that cute!
While we sang to him he wouldn't turn his head, he just kept looking out of the side of his eyes with this big smile on his face. I love this boy so much.
