Look who's 3!

My Little Man turned 3 this past month.  We had a very simple "lellow" birthday party at the park (yellow is his favorite color).  He and I made box mix cupcakes, used store bought frosting and sprinkled them with yellow sugar.  Yellow flags topped each cupcake (made from toothpicks and yellow card stock). What can I say, with this big belly I'm carrying around, we needed to keep things easy.   The highlight was a mass of yellow balloons.  The lowlight was when half of the mass floated away as soon as we arrived at the park.  He had a great time with his friends, loved being the center of attention (not his usual personality) and Mama was happy to see that he loved his crown.  I was also able to make a nice reverse applique shirt while also covering a stain in his favorite yellow shirt.

Maybe yellow is his favorite because it's the color of construction vehicles?  He definitely loves digging in the sand.

Happy Birthday, sweet boy!
