Gabe had his awesome 3rd birthday on February 9th! I can't believe it. It's been three years. I can't say they've been blissful but they have been eventful, emotional, joyous, depressing, exciting, anxiety-ridden, you know all those wonderful things, the good and the bad. Being a parent is tough stuff. But I love him and am so glad I have him!

Gabe wanted a Pirate birthday party. So I went all out and got a gazillion things at the party store. His grandparents (my parents) came up along with Uncle Bruce, Aunt Cheryl, Aunt DeAnn, and a few of his cousins. It turned out really well. He had fun playing and eating cake. Plus he got gigantic balloons!

Gabe is so cute! Look at you doing all those awesome activities with him! I am in awe. You're a good mama.
ReplyDeleteYou are such a great mom Heather! I love little Gabe. So excited he gets to come to preschool this year. It will be so nice to see you more too!
ReplyDeleteTime sure does fly! What a great birthday party for the little Pirate. I've been lacking on doing fun activities with the girls, it used to be easier with just Ava. I need to do more. And I was shocked to see Archie's hair gone! Good cause to donate too.
