AJ's Birthday weekend

I must be nesting my blog, and I just realized that I didn't post any pictures of AJ's Birthday weekend! It's been over a month--I'm terrible.

Anyway, we celebrated his birthday party the day before his birthday, at a place called Sports Bounce. It is a VERY fun place for kids--but I think John enjoyed it too much himself. He kept saying afterwards, man, that was an awesome birthday party!

Here is Daddy and AJ waiting for AJ's friends to arrive:


And me and my little man:




AJ greeted his friends. We had about 16 kids attend.



AJ and his best friend from school, Lucas, sliding down the slide. They are so silly together, and inseperable.



AJ sliding down another slide. They also had a lot of bouncing stuff too, but it was hard to get some good shots of the kids inside.



After the bounce play time, they took a picture of (most) of the kids on a big inflatable chair:


AJ's cake. Wegman's made a really good cake. The entire sheet cake was gone! Which is good because in year's past we have had too much leftover! I should also mention that AJ picked his cake theme out this year.






After Pizza (also really good), AJ blew out his candles with some help from his cousin Roman. The boys are so cute!




After Sport Bounce (which was great for a very pregnant mommy because they did EVERYTHING!), we had a small group over for food and drinks. I didn't take many pictures though, but trust me when I say AJ had a GREAT time with the kids that did come.


The next day was AJ's birthday! He woke up and we had breakfast at IHop together. It's a tradition to go out to eat for birthdays-unless someone wants a homemade breakfast REALLY bad!


Afterwards we came back and AJ opened up gifts from mommy and daddy:




We later went to the pool (the day was EXTREMELY hot). The pool was PACKED and not so much fun for us, so we left to go take naps. After nap, we spent some time playing before having our own little family of three celebration. We went to Wegmans and everyone picked out what they wanted for dessert. We came back home and ate dinner then we sang to our three year old. He loved it and really enjoyed his cupcake! Here is his blowing out the number 3:



I can't believe we have a little man on our hands! AJ: Mommy and Daddy have enjoyed every moment of watching you grow. We are so proud of you!
