Atticus had a blast celebrating his birthday last Saturday with friends (or at least we did :)). Here's some of it captured for your pleasure...
We made the cow bell from pawpaw an outside toy ;).
He LOVED his cake.
I need something to wash that cake down!
Giving the Elmo card Grandma sent a hug:
The rocking horse Daddy painted for me (yes, that's a children's book about Theodore Roosevelt beside it; At can't wait for a vacation to the presidential library):
How fast can Atticus learn a new word? Well, it depends whether he wants to or not, because he learned the word boots in one short afternoon. His grandmother and pawpaw sent him a pair in the mail yesterday (tried to upload a video but it didn't work; hopefully will soon):
Earlier this week we went to huge kids consignment sale here in Louisville. We found lots of good deals and would admit to making a few "first child" purchases (things we were just too weak to say no to). Here's At in his new rocking chair. You can make the call as to whether this was a "first child" purchase or not.
