Nicholas is 3 years old

Our super cool little dude turned 3 on March 12th. Two days before his birthday, he was refusing a nap (the usual now, I think they're going away forever), and when I went to get him out of his crib he looks at me and says:

Mama, you are my best friend. Then: Mama, I'm so happy when I see you.

ALL THE TEARS GUYS. ALL THE TEARS.

We are pretty lucky. Nicholas is outgoing, smiley, has tons of energy, and likes to have a good time. When we get to someone's house, he's not shy, he instantly runs to the toys/his friends/whomever, and just throws himself into whatever is going on. He's got a bouncy, happy personality and he is constantly smiling and laughing.

He's definitely still a Mama's boy but things are getting better with Nick, he takes him out more and I'm hoping to start some kind of sport with him this summer and then I think their relationship will become even stronger.

Nicholas loves dinosaurs big time- that's been holding strong ever since we went to Edaville last August. His talking gets better every day, and some of the things he says crack me up so bad (I didn't fart, I dropped a cupcake!) or make me cry (see above). He loves puddle stomping, shopping with Mom, terrorizing Dexter, hugs and cuddles (when he initiates, of course, haha), being out of the house, taking walks, coloring, painting, and stickers.

His doctor's visit was uneventful, he is growing at a great pace and is right where he should be.

I am grateful for this wonderful life we have and count my blessings every single day.
