the birthday boy

A few days ago (March 1), Benson turned THREE!

B @ 3:

*LOVES all things "Junior" (Junior is what he calls ALL race cars) and cars

* 33 lbs, and 3 ft tall

* Likes to pretend he's a "Baby Jaguar"

*Loves to snuggle

*Loves to stick his tongue out when pictures are taken.

*Still carries a Bee (binky) and Ah-Ahs (monkey lovey) everywhere.

*Speaks in full, complex sentences

*Sleeps in a big-boy bed

*Loves to play outside

*Loves to run, jump and climb on anything

*Worships "Bub" (Bailey) and Dad

*Finds Brynley incredibly pesky

*Likes to help Mom cook

*Goes through about 10 napkins per meal, because he doesn't like food on his hands/mouth.

*Eats everything. All day long.
*Believes that Mom's kiss fixes everything.

Benson had two days of celebrating...due to Dad having school on Monday nights. So...on Monday, he opened a few of his presents

...like his Trio Blocks and "Birthday Monsters" book from Guh and Popf L. Along with some new "juniors" and a racing ramp from Mom and Dad, and a "Big Junior" from the Sisters.

We also went to lunch with Dad, and then to Chick-fil-A in the evening to play.

Then on Tuesday...

Benson had his cake and party.

And he opened even more presents...

{Like:}
*Backpack, binoculars, and clothes from Guh/Papa W.

*Big Blue Junior and clothes from the Stewarts

*More Big Juniors from Gavin and Laynie

*R/C car, potty, and undies from Mom and Dad

{which he thought was hysterical}

*More clothes and books from Guh/Popf L.

*Target Card from Aunt Kate and Brody (to buy MORE Juniors)

He love his cake I made so much, he tried to make the cars drive on the track when I wasn't looking.

{it was a hair raising birthday}
