Our "baby" turned 3 last friday! We had a jam packed day of fun planned for our special guy and Daddy even took part of the day off so we could go celebrate. To start the day Jens woke up to streamers in his doorway, he wasn't sure what to think at first then he got into the swing of things.
Our traditional birthday pancakes, warning: picture overload coming up because Jens had soo many great facial expressions I just had to post them all.
Notice there are 5 candles on the pancakes, that was Jens's doing, if we had let him he would've stuck the entire pack on his plate.
Opening presents, Jens was thrilled he didn't have to wait to open presents this year (usually the kids only get to open 1 in the morning and then we have to wait to do the rest once Daddy is home from work).
Can't even see Jens the bag is soo big lol
Giving sis a hug for her present
So what happens when you spend the majority of your days with girls???? You get overly excited about what else? C-L-O-T-H-E-S! Sorry Jens, mama will try harder of doing more manly stuff in the future with you like log rolling or something ;)
About to open his big present
Wiggle Car!
I think he made out well this year and we haven't even thrown his party yet!
Sophie got a "you're a great big sister" present so that she and Jens can cruise together
We asked Jens how he wanted to spend his day and had given him some options and he chose to go see the Dinosaur Museum in Ogden. He and Sophie are currently fascinated with dinosaurs.
This is Jens's "what was that?!" face. We had just entered the park area and as I was taking this picture dinosaur roars started playing through a nearby speaker; he totally freaked out.

Comparing track sizes
Look at those scary dinosaurs! With one of their favorites, triceratops.

Watch out for this one! He got loose! :)
Jens, you are one very loving, mischievious, energetic, sensitive, and silly boy. You love to help both mami and daddy with anything that we are doing and love to follow and play with your big sister. You are my cuddle bug and daddy's teddy bear and I hope you never out grow cuddling. You are very passionate with everything that you do which can then translate to being very sensitive and emotional if things don't quite work out your way. You love to be outside, climbing, riding bikes, digging in the dirt and finding any way to get dirty, sticky, or wet. With being messy and sticky you love to paint, play with playdough, blow bubbles, and any type of craft that involves glue. You are whiz at puzzles and love to build with your blocks or train sets, or couch pillows. Thank you for providing our family with lots of laughter and the best hugs we've ever had and for reminding us its ok to get a little dirty when your having fun and living in the moment. Love you Bubbs!
