Wells Is THREE!

Happy Birthday, Wells! Oh how you've loved celebrating your birthday this year. You're into so many things: transportation, sports, Tennessee Vols, food. We celebrated the beginning of your third year with a transportation party, and it was so fun! You chose the guest list, and your closest friends came to celebrate you.


We had a family birthday party the weekend before when family came through town, and here's the picture from that celebration.

Now to describe you as a new three year old...  You love cheese and yogurt. You request 'mo-milk' (oatmeal) for breakfast every morning. Apple and cinnamon and plain mixed. Big eater. 
You love fish sticks, strawberries, GRAPES, and sweets. Recently we discovered your love for raspberries and apples that have been peeled. A go to snack for you is Greek yogurt and apple sauce with 'cimmamon'. 
Your little language is adorable, and I scowl at any attempt to correct your vocabulary. It'll be fixed as you age, but I want to enjoy little you as long as possible. So when you say 'I lug you, mommy' I will always lug you back. :o)
You're a big kid. You are much bigger than M and P were at this age, and your expanded and articulate vocabulary is attributed to the little mama you have in Paisley and older siblings. 

When you awake from nap or night, you are the most snuggly. When you're tired, a thumb goes into your mouth, and the other hand wraps around the wrist. You still love to play with your ears to settle. 

This summer over July 4th weekend we potty trained you. It was a REAL struggle the first two days. You are oh so busy, little man. It's hard to get you to stop, even now. I just watch for the cue of a dark spot or dancing, and we rush to the bathroom. 
You're gentle with animals and babies. We learned this year that you're allergic to dogs and that hypoallergenic doesn't really mean anything. :o(
Mickey is still the favorite, although Paw Patrol is a close second. Being the fourth, you're lucky to choose the show on tv. Because you're such a busy bee, you won't sit still anyway. ;o) And boy do you love to go somewhere. It doesn't matter where, just be on the go. 

We love you, sweet Wells. Wild Wells. Wellsy. 

Thank you for being our number 4. 

-Mommy and Daddy
