We celebrated our son’s 3rd birthday this past weekend. The day before his birthday, he didn’t nap and went to bed early which caught me off guard when I realized it was his last day as a 2 year old. I walked abruptly to his room and opened the door where he was lying down with Jay, about to go to sleep and I broke down in tears. As I put my face right next to his and kissed him, he immediately put his arm around my face and held me tight. “Today is your last day as a 2 year old… I wanted to take a photo of you today but forgot… Let me give you one last kiss as my two year old little boy…” Which Jay rolled his eyes(because I cry at all my kids birthdays the day before) and left the room and said, “Then why don’t you take a picture of him right now?” So in the dark room with the flash ever so bright, I snapped these last two photos of my boy as a two year old.
I lied next to him and just cuddled him super tight and gave him a ton of kisses all over while tears were falling down my face. He is my youngest baby. How is my youngest baby already 3 years old? I couldn’t believe it. It went by too fast. He kept holding me super tight as if to reassure me that things will be okay. That he would always be my son, that he would always be my little baby. My little baby you will always be.
I made a video of his birthday, I think videos are so much more fun than photos, don’t you? I would like to add one more thing about videos, I was looking at this video and was thinking, man! This video and all the videos I shoot doesn’t show what a fun mom I am! Hahahaha, yes, I’m totally self proclaiming here but since Jay never takes photos of me let alone videos unless I ask him to, and I’m not going to be like, “Ooh, I’m going to do this fun thing with the kids and ask Jay to videotape us…” so I wish this video had me tube fighting with my girls and us laughing hysterically, me doing silly dances(okay, maybe not) and the other fun things I do! So “insert fun mom here”. 😉
I love that out of all the cupcakes we let him choose at the grocery store(since we are so fancy), he chose the flower one with sprinkles. He makes this mama and his two sisters proud!!! Can you tell he is with 3 girls all day long?
