I can't believe he's already 3! Time sure goes by quickly. We went to visit my Aunt's the weekend after the hurricane, and through Jaeden a quick, late night birthday party, which he truly enjoyed. After Gwen's volleyball game, everyone, but Jaycer and me, went to eat Mexican food. I stayed home, and baked Jaeden's cake (yellow cake, chocolate icing and lots of sprinkles). We didn't get together for the party til after nine, which was late for Jaeden. But for the most impatient toddler, he did very, very, well waiting. He waited so long, that at one point he got up to go potty. When walking out of the kitchen, he repeatedly said "Don't sing without me. Please, don't sing without me!" It was sooo funny, that he thought we would sing happy birthday, without him in front of the cake. After we finally sang to him, he politely said "Thank you" It was the sweetest thank you!!! He was sooo happy to finally be celebrating his birthday. Of course, he didn't eat any cake, but did lick the candles. He was most interested in opening the presents!! He has waited since Jaycer's birthday in May to finally have his birthday again, and there are a lot of family birthday's in the summer - Zachary, Daddy, Papa, Junie, Aunt Julie and then his!!

Other exciting pics from the weekend adventure!! Jaeden remembers riding and falling off the jet ski..... story to be blogged in the future. But he still loves the jet ski!!

Nothing could keep him off the trampoline. It had rained recently, so it turned everything black... the reason for jumping in a diaper!!! Yes, he's potty trained, except at night, and the diaper doesn't come off until the first time he potties in the morning. He was out there jumping first thing!!!
