It was twelve and a half years ago that this post (had I been blogging then) might have been titled "And Baby Makes Three." But now somehow time has raced ahead to this moment when my last baby is turning three. He is in fact, no longer a baby. He's not even a toddler. He's a preschooler.
How appropriate that he is huffing and puffing to get his "3" candle blown out. It took me 3 hours of huffing and puffing to bring him into this world. And like the sweet frosting that stained his face for hours, he is a sweetheart whose baby days will not soon be erased from my memory.
I'm so thankful it isn't one, two, three, you're out. I've got quite a few more great innings of parenting left. I'm so thankful, too, that you've been part of my crowd, checking in here for the score.
May you enjoy a blessed Thanksgiving with your family!






My precious Nick will always be my baby no matter how old he gets. Thanks so much for the pictures, they are so good that me like Elaina want to help him blow out the candles. Me like you want to wash his face. lol Grandma LU
Awww 3 already? no it can’t be! Happy Birthday sweet little boy!
What a darling he is. I’m so glad we can all celebrate his birthday together here in cyberspace. Sending lots of BIG HUGS and birthday wishes his way, and yours. XO
