All Aboard!!... Andrew's Birthday

Andrew's 3rd birthday was so much fun! In fact, Andrew asks daily "can we go back to that train birthday party, Mama?" and I think he even mentioned it in his prayers tonight! :) (I guess we may be having another train party next year!) Andrew loves trains, so we had begun planning a train birthday party for him over the summer. I knew that when the new baby came we would be busy, so May-May and I started planning early. May-May and Bubby were so sweet to host the party at their home which was a huge help to us. May-May also helped organize lots of cute activities for the kids, and then they handled most of the set-up! Thanks May-May and Bubby - we couldn't have done it without you!

The All Aboard Train was definitely the highlight of the party! The kids loved riding it.

He rode in the caboose everytime! On most trips he was wearing his Thomas hat, blowing his whistle, and calling out "all aboard!" It was the cutest thing!

We had so much fun!!

Andrew's actual birthday was the day before the party. He was so excited about his new scooter. He jumped right on and took off. He'll say "I love my new scooter" to us when he's outside riding it. Have I mentioned lately that he talks ALL the time? Seriously... he talks all the time!

We met May-May and Bubby and Izzy and UncDawg (Elizabeth & Bryan) at the Cock of the Walk for dinner on his birthday. Yum! We all enjoyed our catfish and fries, and the boys enjoyed feeding the ducks some leftovers. I was excited to get a picture with my big birthday boy. I can't believe that he is 3!
