Happy Birthday Bram!

It's weird to think that 3 years ago today Bram came out screaming into this world. We can't believe that he's now 3!! He is still our little baby with his bright curly blonde hair and pretty blue eyes.

The morning started out very bright and early at 6 when

the boys decided to wake up and by 7 they were outside screaming while jumping on the tramp - waking up the neighborhood including their father who was on call and trying to catch just a little bit more shut eye. Holly baked some coffee cake which all except Bram enjoyed and got things ready so we were only about 1/2 hour late to church (there goes our record of 3 straight weeks of being at least 5

minutes early to church!!). After an uneventful day at church, we

rushed home, cleaned things up a bit and had some friends over for a low-key gathering.

Bram's favorite toy of the day, as we might have guessed, was the remote control train track set.

He might have been most excited however with the superman wrapping paper

on one of his "educational" toys.

He's now on his way to bed, already having visited the downstairs once and hopefully his last. He's still not sure how old he really is as when he is asked he'll vary from "25"

"6" "2 1/2" and "5 1/2" and getting those middle 3 fingers to show the age is quite the skill to develop apparently.
