Super Jack is THREE!

Almost!  We celebrated today at a Superhero party with our favorite Superheroes, and we had a great time!  See the birthday boy doing a dance to welcome his guests?  Kidding!  He was really running down the steps so he could jump off!Jack’s second year.  That first picture was taken on his second birthday.  I can’t wait to compare that picture with a picture from his third birthday. Superhero Gear was waiting to welcome the superheroes.  I thought they’d dress up right away, but most decided to pack them up to take home.Super Em was looking pretty super!Uncle Joey, Anna, and Eva were looking great, too! We thankfully had great weather, so the superheroes played outside,had Power Painting done on their arms and faces, and had super swords, Batman, dogs, frogs, you name it!, made by Super Joey.  We love him!Sam played with grandpa, and his very own sword!,and Boland had fun with the toys and his big sister!  He got his very own sword, too!The superheroes used a lot of energy saving the day, so we had lunch for them. And of course some birthday sweets! Side note on the cookies:  Jack came downstairs the morning after I made these and saw them laying on the counter.  With such excitement, he said, “Wo, momma!  Look what you made!  Those are the bestest cookies ever!  I can’t wait to eat one!”  He made my day, and that is one of the reasons why it’s worth some late nights decorating and baking for him. Kendall enjoyed her lunch and a cupcake, and sweet Ethan enjoyed a nap on his mama!And then it was birthday cake time! 

(cake, and cupcake toppers, by Burghardt’s Custom Cakes-she’s amazing!) 

The birthday boy hopped on up (and then I switched his seat for better lighting!), got his mask all situated, and then put his nervous face on while we all sang to him. And his favorite part- Oooohhh, we love this almost three-year-old!  I went to get the plates and cake server, and Amy caught Jack sneaking a lick!  Crazy boy!  (Thanks for taking these pictures, Aim!) Our boy enjoyed his cake (not only was it pretty, but it was delicious!  I really recommend Lauren!), and before we knew it, it was naptime for all the superheroes. Thank you all for celebrating Super Jack’s 3rd birthday with us-you definitely saved the day!
