Briggs is THREE!!!

Sweet Briggs,

Today you are THREE!!!  I can't believe my little baby is already three. You are loved more than you will ever know. You are an amazing, carefree, silly boy. You are a mama's boy in every sense of the word. I swear you would use a magic wish to make the two of us kangaroos so you could sit in my pouch all day. And as annoying as it can be, I really do cherish it!  You are the crappiest sleeper though. Sorry kid- but you suck!  Half the time you SCREAM until we come lay with you going to bed. This can last well over an hour. You are lucky your brother could sleep through a tornado. If you haven't thrown a huge fit going to bed, you are pretty consistent at waking up screaming and crying for mommy around 3 am.  It's a really good thing you're cute!!!

You try to be just like Ben. You copy everything he does or say. You also fight like cats and dogs. It wears this momma out!  But the good totally outweighs the bad. You love to sing and do a great job of picking out your clothes- they always match!  We were so worried last year about your verbal skills. Well, we aren't anymore :). You never shut up!!!  You're still not a tv watcher. You love to be outside and hate to be cold. You never eat. Like never!  Our little bird. You are itty bitty, too. You have daddy's long torso and wear 3t tops, but are still happily in 2t pants. I swear you weigh nothing. Makes snuggles easier :)

We put a hold on potty training until the summer. We have way too much going on in the next two months that it'll only stress all of us out!  Your best friends are Audrey and Camille. There's a good chance Audrey may be your wife. Young love :). Just like aunt Tina, you love the camera, too!

Briggs- we love you so much. You make life more fun. Your smile and hugs melt anyone who receives them. Happy Birthday sweet little bug!

Love, 

Mommy and daddy

Our sweet friend took some pictures for your birthday. These are our favs. 

You love Elmo!

(Sigh). Just happy and carefree!!!

Briggs called this his "monster's inc university" birthday. We had his party at Jump Zone. Fun for all!!!

Such a great group of friends!

 On Thursday we celebrated your birthday at school with donuts...yum!

Last night when you were in bed, we put your gifts on the fireplace. You ran in this morning to our room telling us that Santa had brought you presents :). Gosh, I love you!!!
