The Lil' Buddy is 3!


October 14, 2005.....could it really be 3 years ago that we brought home little Michael Bones? I know I am a few days behind in my posting but I wanted to post the whole day of MJJ's 3rd birthday.

Michael chose to go to the pet store and the park. More then anything this is how he wanted to celebrate HIS day. It was a great morning. We went to the pet store and we got there right when it opened so he and Gracie were able to see baby birds (parrots) being hand feed with droppers, They also got to see the fish get fed breakfast, this was exciting too because we saw Nemo and Marlin, Dorothy was not around on Tuesday. He also got to pick a special treat out of the treat jar and pet the kitties.

Afer the pet store we went to the park (by our old house) and the kids played and played. Michael re-named the park, the Packer Park, because he was running laps around the park and I guess in his eyes this is what the Packers do. (How 'bout them Packers by the way?) We ate fish crackers and juice boxes and sang to the top of our lungs Happy Birthday to Michael!

We drove by the old house for old times sake and I told Gracie this was the house you were born in. She asked if we could go in and when I replied "no" she was a bit miffed and confused and then asked "do you have anymore old houses? Ones we can go in?" Good question but "no".


Oh, I almost forgot. He picked me a handful of dandelions and said "der for you Mom, fur your bwirthday" I loved them more then a dozen roses! Thank you Michael!

That evening we went to Grandma Jean's for pizza and cake. Uncle Bob, Uncle Eddie, Uncle Jack, Jim, Logan and Lydia, Mom, Dad and Gracie and Grandma Jean were all in attendance. The kids ran around outside and had a great time. Michael did get a few gifts (well, it is his real birthday, you know) And the helicopter was by far his favorite. He also loves his new Tommy the Train computer. Michael had two pieces of cake and really enjoyed his day. Mom did too, I just want to know, how can my 7lb 8oz little buddy be 3 already? He brightens our days and makes us belly laugh. He is the sweetest little boy, just don't ask him to share one of his 10,000+ cars!
