Such a BIG BOY

August and September were banner months here at the Wilkinson household! Colin Michael turned 3 (HOLY CRUD), Brad was home for two weeks and Colin started Montessori preschool.

Being that I am such a big fan of birthdays (often accused of stretching mine out for days and days) we celebrated Colin's 3rd birthday on his actual birthday and with a birthday bash on the Saturday after his birthday. On the 24th, his actual birth date, his Mooma was here and gave him his first prezzie bright and early. What did the birthday boy get you ask? Frogs of course!

Colin is now the proud owner of two little frogs named Max and Tuck (note the ode to Max & Ruby and the Wonder Pets). He loves them and knows exactly how much to feed them and when. Such a memory that boy!

We spent the rest of the day giving him little prezzies and generally spoiling him then topping off the night with dinner at Cheesecake Factory (lame I know but it was the only place in Arlington that would SING) with mommy, mooma, Aunt Amanda W., Aunt Nat and his BFF Ryan (also celebrating his 3rd birthday). Much fun was had by all and special thanks to Amanda for the mid-dinner presents to the boys!!





The highlight of the birthday week was the return of DADDY!!!!! Brad got home on Thursday night and we celebrated Colin's birthday with family and friends on Saturday through Sunday.

The very next week we headed to Virginia Beach for a few days then back home so Colin could start Montessori. Woo hoo!
