Konnor is 3!

Now if you would have asked Konnor for about the past year how old he is, he would have told you 5.  Hehehe.  Not sure how he decided that but he said it very confidently.

In reality though, he just turned 3 on Wed.  I tried to stay up until his birth time of 12:50am on Tue, but didn't quite make it.  I have fun remembering the surprise of his birth and love sharing the memory with a church friend.  She works at the grocery store and the night he was born really wanted me to have help carrying out my groceries.  I declined, loaded them up, came home and not 30 min later, my water broke.

My heart is so full remembering seeing my surprise miracle baby for the first time.  He was so tiny (to me) at 7lb 12oz and such a blessing after an uncertain pregnancy.

We had his party the weekend before his bday.  He decided on his own that he wanted a Thomas the Train bday.  Believe it or not, I still had cups and plates left over from when Kelton had a Thomas theme from his 3rd bday! I used my circut for the decorations.





We started the party with his bday video.  I do them through the kids 3rd bday, so this was the last one I will ever make. 


Next it was presents!




















Then a Thomas game similiar to pin the tail on the donkey.  The kids looked hilarious with the little blindfold on!


Finally it was cake time!!


The Thomas shirt he wore for the party is the shirt that Mimi made for Kelton when we saw Thomas LIVE when he was 3 yrs old.  I remember that the poor guy was sick and didn't even enjoy it.



On his actual bday, the little stinker slept in until almost 9:30am!  I had a cookie with a candle waiting for him when he woke up. 

While the kids and I were at church that night, Eric and Konny had Sonic drinks and Konny got to pick something out at Atwoods.

Only 1 more birthday to go and we're done until next year!  Whew!  I'm not sure if it's easier or harder to get them all over with in a matter of weeks.
