Vince's "real" 3rd birthday

I see how it can be confusing for a kid to have a birthday party one day when their real birthday is another day. So I tried to explain beforehand that Vince's party was just his birthday party and his real birthday was on Monday. So Monday morning as he's waking up I asked him what today was.... and he said, my "real" birthday!

So for his real birthday, mommy took him to McDonalds for pancakes and playtime before school. He does things a little backwards though, goes up the slides and down the stairs. It's okay as long as there are no other kids there!!



Then it was off to school! On Mondays, Vince is the only boy with 5 girls in his class. They all sang him happy birthday while they had cookies! I picked him up from school and one of Vince's friend's came over to play with him all afternoon. By 5:30, daddy, grandma, and grandpa came over to open presents from the 4 of us and we sang him happy birthday one last time with the remaining cake from his party!

Then it was off to finish celebrating at Itz's, a nearby pizza and play place. It was totally dead there and we really had the run of the place. Vince enjoyed a ride with daddy on the go-carts... I love they had a pink one! Vince kept his hands up the whole time while having fun!

Next it was time to mini-bowl. Vince needed a little help to get the balls all the way down the lane so we gladly helped. I like this next picture because sneaky David is lurking in the background and is ready to roll a ball from behind us!

We hit up some more fun rides before retiring for the night. He had a great day and ended it at home playing his his new vtech book reader. He is one spoiled child with his parents and grandparents by his side as he reaches these important birthday milestones!

PS... I am 32 weeks pregnant here. I'm pretty big, but this white, fitted shirt makes me look "real" big!
