Our baby boy turned 3 last month, and we had a party to celebrate him. I asked him several times what kind of party he wanted, and the themes he suggested varied from a Spiderman party, to a baseball party to a pirate party. There was one constant, he wanted a Spiderman cupcake. So, I took that suggestion and planned a seasonal pumpkin party, complete with said cupcake. T is an easy going kid when it comes to these things, so I hoped that he would have fun with what we planned. And he did. Here's a look at the fun we had as be partied it up with our newest 3 year old!

| T in his birthday shirt. He is such a cutie! |
 |
| A quick photo with Mommy before the party begins. He put his around me like that, isn't that sweet?! I LOVE this kid! |
 |
| It was so much fun having Auntie Sarah here for the weekend. We always have a blast with her. |
 |
| Our three year olds acting silly and showing their age. |
 |
| The cousins taking a crack at our first game, tossing bat rings into a pumpkin. It's harder than it looks! |

 |
| T & his proud Papa |
 |
| Uncle Spencer & T having a chat. |
 |
| Back to the bat game! |
 |
| Taking a break in the action for some lunch. We were celebrating Andy's birthday too, and had Papa Murphy's pizza, his favorite! |
 |
| Everybody's eating pizza! |
 |
| Auntie Shelley snuggling with Baby J, he is such a cutie! |
 |
| Getting set up for more activities... |
 |
| The cookie table is looking ready. |
 |
| I found this fun idea online, painting with legos! I cut out pumpkin shapes and let the kids go to town with their blocks. |
 |
| The kids had a ball with this new painting technique. |
 |
| K & T love to be around cousin S. |
 |
| So much fun! |
 |
| The birthday boy loved it! |
 |
| The cookie crew got started on decorating pumpkin cookies. Uncle Spencer worked it! |
 |
| Finished pumpkins. |
 |
| T couldn't wait for a turn. |
 |
| Auntie Sarah helping T pick candy for his cookie before he shoved it all in his mouth. He is Mr. Sweet Tooth! |
 |
| K did several cookies, but seemed to like the creating more than the eating. |
 |
| T getting ready to eat more candy. |
 |
| Trying a nibble. |
 |
| S is really concentrating! |
 |
| Uncle Eric working his magic. Man, I wish I was a lefty like him, then I think I could draw like him! |
 |
| Spencer made this cookie for Mom, wasn't that sweet? |
 |
| Em helping K, she's such a good auntie. |
 |
| The pumpkins are dry! This is K's. |
 |
| S's pumpkin. |
 |
| And the birthday boy's. These all looked great! |
 |
| Finally, what T had been waiting for, blowing out the candles. |
 |
| The birthday boys singing happy birthday to each other. They sure do love one another. |
 |
| Making a wish! |
 |
| Yeah! |
 |
| I love these boys! |
 |
| T, once again, was so blessed on his birthday. His family really knows and loves him. He got so many great things and loves it all. Cousin S helped him open these cute stormtrooper jammies. We have to sing the Stormtrooper march every night when he puts them on. |
 |
| Everyone likes to open presents! |
 |
| Lincoln logs! |
 |
| An awesome fire truck that makes sounds, he loves it. |
 |
| This is a favorite gift, a sock monkey umbrella. |
 |
| Cool, a lunchbox! |
 |
| And anything Jake & The Never Land Pirates is just awesome. |
 |
| Daddy got some nice things too, but they're no... |
 |
| Sock Monkey Umbrella! |
 |
| Papa is always a good sport. |
 |
| Having a little bday cupcake, complete with Spiderman ring. Mission complete. |
 |
| T liked blowing out the candle so much, that he asked me to light it again. |
 |
| and again.... |
 |
| ...and again.... |
 |
| ...and again...! Such simple pleasures. Anything for you Mr. T! |
 |
| Auntie Em & T give a final smile. |
 |
| Happy 3rd Birthday baby boy. We love you to the moon & back! |
