Happy third one

Presents are twice as fun when they're covered in Spider-Man!

The Boy is now officially three years old, and this weekend we had a dual birthday party for him and his day care pal who was born three days after him. Low-key, at least from a party-planning perspective: we went to the indoor play place and had pizza for the kids. Fortunately, Beth and I planned ahead, and we mostly were prepared for the guests, their parents, and the... um... "bonus guests."

Nana flew in for the festivities, sans Peepaw, because Peepaw is an accountant and is just a little busy at this time of the year. She climbed into the ball pit with The Boy (not for long -- she did get back out after the picture was taken) and had a little pizza with everyone too. Nana visits for two reasons: The Boy, and our junk food. See, junk food has no calories if it's eaten outside of your home state.
Note Nana's pitching arm, which is much better than The Boy's swing. No, I take that back. The Boy has a great swing -- down. He approaches the ball Bam-Bam-style.

Don't worry, the bat and the ball are both padded. No grandparents were harmed in the making of this blog post.

And I guess pictures of the boy are even cuter when no one can see his face. :-)

He does have a really cute forehead, eyelid and right arm though.
SHE doesn't want the whole picture on here for security reasons. The same reason she doesn't sign up for bloglines.

Also once the world sees how really cute he is it's possible they'll be beating down your door to put him to work modeling children's togs and SHE'LL have to drive him to all his "jobs" and it will really complicate things, now and in the future, and eat away at her "art" time.

Am I right?

Hmm, maybe not 100%

I have the same problem with posting pictures of my nieces and nephews... and people in general. (even though I some times/rarely do post pictures) I don't really know why. But I can definitely understand it if it's your own kid.

His little forehead is quite adorable!
