Big Three

                                                                                                                                                        
My baby is three today!!!

Waaaaaahhhhhh!

The Mad Toddler is going to have to get a new nickname, because as of today, he is no longer a toddler. I am sad to see my baby leave his baby days behind, but I am excited to know we are just beginning the great adventure of discovery of the outside world.

I love my baby! He is independent, strong-willed, curious, sweet, playful, with just a dash of self-preservation. he is adored by his three big brothers, and loved to pieces by his mom and dad.

Loving on Granny

It has been a real experience having a baby BE a baby all by himself. The older three are all two years apart, so life was pretty crazy when they were all small. This time around, the Mad Toddler had babyhood all to himself and two parents and three junior parents to dote on him. He has never lacked for entertainment or company.

He is loved, and he knows it!
