We had a cowboy themed party at the house and Asa drew quite the crowd to help celebrate. Lots of family (Grandma Gail, Aunt Dacia, and cousins Nate, Eziah, and Aliyah, Cousin Mandi and family, and cousin Weston and family) along with my fellow Gammas and their families (Jen, Dana, and Dahlia) were all in attendance. Asa felt so special - his favorite part was when everyone stopped to sing Happy Birthday to him. I'm pretty sure that's always been my least favorite part of a birthday party so, yet again, I'm not sure where this kid came from?!?
I blog solely from my phone and I neglected to take party pics on my phone so I don't have any to add...
I do have a picture of Norah dressed for the party:
Also, Mimi gave Asa a fireman outfit:
And here's a shot of Asa licking the cupcake batter (possibly my favorite part of birthday parties):
He had his 3 year well check and it went great! He's hitting all physical and developmental milestones. He got one shot- chickenpox booster- and he said "ow" and then "that wasn't so bad." I was impressed! His vision is good and he's overall a healthy kid. In fact, the last time he saw his doctor was his 2 year well check!
36" tall- 20%
31#- 50%
At 3, our Asa is sweet, smart, affectionate, and a bit wild! He loves to make "deals" (ie if you put jammies on and brush teeth, you can have milk). It's all about negotiation around here. He loves cartoons, playing outside, going to school, his friends and family (especially Norah), and milk. He could go all day without food if he could drink as much milk as he wanted. It's kind of ridiculous but there could be worse things. He can, and occasionally does, spend two hours in the tub. He loves to help cook and will refer to himself as Chef Asa while I am Chef Mommy and Tony is Chef Daddy. When he wakes up, he often declares that it's "wonderful" outside. Asa has confused "wonderful" with "daylight" and I don't correct him because it's so darn cute.
We love you Asa! Happy 3rd birthday!!!
