In all my avoiding my blog in December, I never posted about the fact that Will turned 3! Three! In my head he’s still like 18 months old. Anyway, his 3 year check up isn’t until Friday, so I can’t tell you how huge his head is yet. I can, however, show you this picture of the awesome spiderman cake I made him.
I went out of my way to find a spiderman that would fit on a cake (after his repeated requests for a spiderman cake) but when it came down to it he did NOT want that spiderman on there. He just wanted the web. I only put it on for the pictures. Anyway, no presents because we did his party in the summer, but here’s a little about Will at age three:
He says “I’m am!” instead of “I am”
He will sometimes put himself in timeout if he knows he’s done something wrong. (Generally this happens if he hurts Kalena.)
He continues to be a huge breakfast eater and he has a ridiculous sweet tooth.
He’ll tell you, “my tummy aches for…” when he wants a certain food. (Usually some kind of dessert.) He apparently doesn’t know that “ache” means “hurt.”
He is in a phase of not wanting his picture taken.
He often says, “I smell something” and then when you ask what he’ll give you a response that makes no sense. For instance, last night he told me he smelled something and when I asked what he said, “That noise.” Okay kid.
He’s still obsessed with dinosaurs, crocodiles, and reptiles in general.
He talks a lot and I often hear him repeating Kalena exactly.
If you say something he doesn’t like or that makes him mad he’ll say, “You not talk to me!” or “You not say dat!”
He’s pretty awesome.
I love the cake. I need it for my son’s birthday!
It was super easy! Which was good, because I really didn’t want to get into making an involved cake days before Christmas.
Anna smells random adjectives, etc. too.
I kind of love it.
So funny how he didn’t want spidey on his cake after all. That’s very 3.
Right? I had to reassure him that I was just putting it on to take pictures and I would take it right back off.
Elizabeth did the same thing. Wanted a Care Bears cake and then when I went to put the Care Bears on, she was all “ahhhh! Noooooo!”
I think they just like to toy with us.
He’s still 18 months in my head too! The line about his head made me laugh. What a kid.
I think I’m going to go to your house for my next birthday so that you can make me a cake. Yes, I expect a fancy cake. I’m traveling to grand junction for crying out loud!
If you come to GJ for your next birthday I will make you a SUPER fancy cake.
