Happy Birthday to MJ

Yesterday was Matthew's third birthday, and what a day it was! He was very grouchy in the morning and declared that he did not want to be three and he did not want a birthday. We told him he had no choice. I thought that stuff didn't start until you turned 30 (at least, that's when I started complaining!)

We gave him most of the gifts from us yesterday. He got a Spiderman punch bag and a Little Einstein's video, which he had to watch immediately. He had a special breakfast of sausage and french toast, a special Lunchables for lunch, and he choose chicken and mashed potatoes for supper. After supper we went out for ice cream at Culver's. We had two free kids scoops coming to us, along with a buy one get one free sundae coupon for Rob and I, so not a bad deal! The boys were far more interested in playing at the booth than in their ice cream (so more for Mommy!!)

He did have to see the doctor for his check-up, for which he was completely uncooperative. Other than that, the only special thing we did was go to the library and check 0ut the SpongeBob movie. He's having a SpongeBob party on Saturday, so that should be fun. Oh, I did let him stay up late (all the way until 9:45pm!) and play Nintendo with Mommy. That was fun for both of us.

So next up is tomorrow's party, which includes four of his little friends. Should be loads of fun!
