Kale's Third Birthday

Kale turned three on June 3rd. I can't believe he is three!!!!! I swear he was just Mia's size. He is so smart and I love my little boy. We wanted the day to be his, so we took him to the Discovery Gateway Museum. He loves it there. We went and he had a great time. He played with everything and was running all over! After the Museum we had family over and celebrated with pizza and cupcakes. Kale was so spoiled with presents. He is so lucky to have so many people who love him. I am so grateful for all of my family and Chandler's family that love our little boy. He is blessed with so many people who care about him. Kale had a blast on his birthday and he was ready for bed by the end of the day. Here are a few things that he is doing at this fun age:

-He has really cute nicknames for grandparents. He calls my parents and my grandparents by their dogs. My grandparent's dog is Buddy, so he calls them Grandma and Grandpa Buddy. For my parents he calls them Grandma and Grandpa Max and Sadie, their dogs. :) But, the best is for Chandler's parents. They don't have a dog, but they have this fake owl that they put on their porch and Kale loved it when he was younger, so he calls them Grandma and Grandpa Who-Owl. :) Isn't that the cutest thing!!!! He is starting to grow out of it and call them by their last names, but that was my favorite thing and I love that was how he identified his grandparents.
-He is SO tall, but SO skinny. I had my mom make all if his pants into shorts. Kale is wearing 18month pants!!! They totally fit his waist. He is so skinny. I wish I had that problem. When he went to his yearly doctor's appointment he was in the 20% for weight, but the 90% for height. Tall and skinny..... :)
-He is so smart and I cannot believe what he remembers. He will remember things that happened months ago and can tell you pretty accurately what happened.
-He is definitely going through some independence stages and we are learning how to deal with that through lots of time outs. :)
-He loves to give me hugs and tell me I'm his best friend. MELT MY HEART!!!
I am so grateful for my little boy and so excited to be home with him now. Kale, mom loves you so much!!!!!
