Anton handed me one of his go fish cards that he was cleaning up. So I asked him what number was on it.

Now remember that he just turned three.

I was pointing at the four in one corner and he looked the card over and said “forty four”. I think my mouth hung open for a minute. Then he handed me another card. So I pointed at the three and asked what number it was.

He, again, looked it over and said “thirty three”.

Oh my.

The Baby…

turned 3 today. How can that be? It was just yesterday…

We brought him home…

and I learned how to sleep in the most uncomfortable positions…

also he slept in the most uncomfortable positions and Daddy didn’t sleep at all…

his big brother, who is even bigger now, loves him…

most importantly he made our family complete…

plus he gave us many many many laughs at his ability to sleep eat…

or pretty much fall asleep anywhere doing anything…

that’s our boy…

Happy Birthday Anton!

Daddy said “Quit that fussing or I’m taking that monkey away!”

I’m just going to leave you with that. Enjoy.

Anton said “I want my drum Mommy. Because when I grow up I’m going to be in a rock band and play music.”

I told Abby that it was time to get ready for school. She did not respond.

So I said “Abby do you hear me?”

And I heard a little voice say “No.”
