Tyler's 3!!!

Yes, I can't believe it...my baby boy is 3!!! (Yeah whatever, I know I'm a month late - deal with it!) We had a very fun birthday - though it was a bit rushed. I got home from West Virginia on Friday, March 6th, his actual birthday. And wonderful airlines that they are....got us delayed for several hours. (Equipment failure...makes ya feel safe huh!) So instead of getting home at 4pm so we could have a birthday dinner. I got home after 9pm. And then we had his birthday part on Saturday evening.









His theme was Thomas the Train (Sometime referred to as Thomas the Tank Engine). I was going to choose something else, but Clint found this AMAZING gift online and got a smokin' deal. It's a Thomas that toddlers can actually ride on a set of tracks!!! To say the least, it was THE hit of the party! Tyler would drag me out to the driveway where it was set up all day and night long just so he could ride...even abandoning his party and guests.
We were lucky to have a ton of friends and family join us for the event, even Clint's mother who lives in Arkansas was in town. Tyler LOVES having his cousins, both the girls and the boys around.
His uncles enjoying playing with his new bright red tractor.

He got a BEAUTIFUL quilt from MawMaw! And of course all the other cool boy toys you could think of: cars, trains, construction trucks, baseball hats, Handy Manny, CARS.

Because I didn't get home when expected, I didn't have the time I needed to make the perfect cake. Tyler still got a Thomas cake, but it's definitely "goofy" looking. But Tyler knew what it was and was very excited about it so I guess that's all that matters!

And he may have made a little bit of a mess eating his cake!
