Isaac is THREE!

Isaac had a birthday...he's officially THREE years old!
Isaac knew his birthday was coming up, and boy was he excited about it!  We started his birthday celebrations by going to my parent's house the day before the big day.  He was spoiled by Grandma and Grandpa and loved all his new toys :).  He especially loved the new outfit...this boy LOVES clothes :).
He, of course, was beyond excited when his special day actually came.  We started the day of by opening his presents.  My kids don't have the will to wait until daddy gets home, so I just let them go for it and open the goods.  I had Noah video him with my phone while I helped Isaac...that way we could show Doug later on ;).  Isaac was thrilled with his presents...Toy Story 3, swim goggles, a water gun, a Spiderman water toy, and...
...a motorcycle!  He has been obsessed with motorcycles lately, and actually wanted one that he could ride on, but that wasn't going to happen {sorry!}.  We took him to the store the day before and this was the one that he picked out.  He was thrilled when he opened it up, and he's been playing with it lots ever since.
Then we had our traditional birthday breakfast.  He, like his siblings, chose pancakes for breakfast.  It's a family favorite...it was yummy, and he loved it!
Isaac hasn't been a huge fan of swimming, but lately he has warmed up to it and, it turns out, he loves it!  Thus all the fun water toys for his birthday :).  He really wanted to go swimming on his birthday, but his little sis wasn't feeling up to it, so we stayed home and played in the water all.day.long!  Good times!
While Noah went to a birthday party, and Leah went to play at a friends house, Isaac laid low with me and watched his new movie...all while clinging to his new motorcycle.  He seriously loves that thing!
Once the kids came home, we went out to play in the water, yet again.  So fun!
Doug came home with The Pie for dinner {yum!} and we ended the night by having ice cream for dessert.  He insisted on just ice cream...I was OK with that...so easy, and yummy!
He then requested to have a "sleepover" upstairs with Noah and Leah.  He had fun until he got really tired, at which point he requested to go in his room to sleep.  Smart boy...his bed is a lot more comfy than the floor ;).
On Friday, we got together with Doug's family at that park to play and have pizza.  We all had a great time!  
His awesome aunties and cousins gave him some fun gifts...thanks for all the fun goodies!
And we, of course, had to sing to him one more time, which he loved :).  I love the little smirk on his face as he blows out his candle.
And then we played...and loved every minute of it :).
Words can't express how much we love this precious boy.  He's a special little guy and he has changed me for the better.  We had such a great time celebrating Isaac turning one year older...we love him SO much!  To the moon and back!
