What happened at 5:26pm 3 years ago?




Looking at these pictures make me a little teary-eyed. I can't believe that my little boy is already 3 years old. The last 3 years have been wonderful! Living a small 2 bedroom apartment for the first 7 months of your life was a challenge sleeping in mommy and daddys room until we moved into our house. At first you shared a room downstairs with Teagen until Mommy decided that she didn't want your toys all over the piano room. So all the childern moved upstairs. That was a good idea for awhile until Teagen decided that he was going to be afraid of the dark and then you thought that whatever Teagen did you should do too, so now we have 2 boys that are afraid of the dark and refuse to sleep in there own beds. Bedtime is a challenge. You have grown up so fast loving to play with your Diego toys and balls. You love any kind of ball from football to baseball, they are always with you. It has been a year of many changes for you. It was rough after you turned 2 and we couldn't understand most of your words. After a few months of speech therapy you are talking up a storm and saying 6-9 word sentences!!! WOW. The best thing for me was when you said my name is Spencer! This made me cry. I had waited a few years to hear you say that! I'm so proud of you and I look forward to another year of challenges, stepping stones, accomplishments, and much more. Happy 3rd birthday son!!! Mommy loves you sooooooooooo much!!!
