Happy 3rd Birthday!

I can't believe that today the boys are THREE!  Time has just flown by, but we've enjoyed every minute of watching the boys grow! They are developing their very own personalities and ideas and they are learning so much. 

Today we celebrated Grant and JT!  We started our day off with the boys' very first dental appointment at Dr. Joe's office.  Peter and I each have been seeing Dr. Crowley since we were the boys' age so it is really very special that they are also going to the same dentist.  They did great, allowing the hygienist to clean their teeth and having patience while Dr. Joe took a look.  Early ruling: they both will need braces...no surprise there!  Of course the highlight was the treasure chest where the boys picked...you guessed it, cars!

Being the awesome parents that we are, after the dentist we went to Dunkin Donuts! Hey, you only turn 3 once!!!




After Dunkin we went on to visit Pilgrim Preschool, where the boys will attend in the fall.  They LOVED it and I have no doubt that they will love school.  After our visit, we went home for lunch and presents.  We got the boys some of the diecast cars from the movie, Cars.  They were thrilled!  We also got them cute Cars shirts to wear at their birthday party on Saturday.

Following a much needed nap, we took the boys bowling at Western Bowl.  They had so much fun on New Year's Eve that we knew it would be a big hit.  Of course they looked adorable in their little bowling shoes and they did a great job.  Grant even wanted to bowl without the ramp.  But, the highlight of the day was going to dinner at Cracker Barrel, which is their favorite restaurant.  They love to order and then go play with the toys.  We love that they are entertained and don't cause much trouble while waiting.



We ended the day with a bath and a cupcake for snack.  We even sang "Happy Birthday" to them in their own special serenade.  It was a great day!!!
