YELLOW

We no longer can say we have "3 UNDER 3!" Kai is 3 now! We celebrated with a few friends and family in our backyard. The theme was YELLOW (Kai's favorite color). The party was as yellow as I could get it....the balloons, the cupcakes, the attire, the snack foods, the gift wrapping. But the pinata had to be Thomas the Train WITH yellow on it. We blew some bubbles, attempted Fruit Loop and noodle necklaces (a much harder craft for 3 yr olds than I expected), whacked the pinata, and played some t-ball. Kai enjoyed it. He did well as the center of attention, although very ready for a REST after everyone left. He was very blessed by family and friends, so thanks everyone! Here's Kai "smashing" his yellow cupcake! Little Addie was her brother's biggest fan. She's just chillin' at the picnic table. I love that Addie and Zane (Kai's friend) are SOO interested in the gift opening, yet patiently sitting and watching instead of "helping." What good kids! Here's Addie attempting a whack at the pinata! She was surprisingly accurate (with my help)! Kai talked all week about how determined he was to "bust" the pinata open himself! Oh well, it didn't help dad gave him a plastic bat!! It was his party...he was still the champ! No one could bust it with a plastic bat anyway....so we ended up ripping it open like a present and dumping it over the kids' heads! I'm just so glad I knew you had to PUT candy inside it...that could've been pretty disappointing!
