Happy 3rd Birthday, Marshall!

July 2nd was our Marshy's THIRD birthday. HOW is he THREE already?!? Such a big boy! :) We decided not to do a big party this year, just due to baby sister's arrival being so close to birthday season in our house. But, we did do a little party with just the five of us. We had pizza for dinner and Marshall had requested a special dump truck cake from Busken bakery. YUM!! After pizza and cake it was present time.

Could Marshy be any happier about it being his birthday?!

His brothers were more than happy to help open his presents.
And, if all else fails, use your teeth. Right, Graham?!?

new garbage truck.





Look at that big boy on his new bicycle!!!

Off he goes...

Marshall is quite good at riding his new bicycle now.

He can go up and down our street pretty fast!

Marshall even gave his big brother a turn riding his new

bicycle! Go, Patrick Go!!

Robert's birthday is next (July 30th) and then it's Patrick's big day (August 1st) and Graham's big day (August 11th.) Baby sister will have her birthday somewere near daddy and Patrick. Patrick has already made his special birthday requests. He would like a Wii (or 'Wheat' as he calls it!) and a Wii cake. I'll have to talk to the bakery about the whole Wii cake thing, I'm not too sure what we'll come up with on that one! All three boys are getting Leapfrog Explorer handheld games for their birthday. They had no idea what these were until they spotted a little boy with one at the gym just the other day. Now they are obsessed!! So, I have a feeling they will really enjoy their new handheld game system and games from their Nonny and Mimi.
