He's 3!

When did it happen???  My baby is a little boy.  Today at 4:14pm it will be 3 years since I became a mommy and welcomed my spirited little Zachary into this world.  I love this kid.  I see so much of myself and of Matt in his personality.  He is full of energy and vigor, loves fiercely, has a stubborn streak that I have NO idea where it comes from (haha, im sure both matt and I's parents have no question where it comes form), and just simply has a joy for life.  Don't get me wrong, he can be a stinker like all 3 year olds....but that's just part of being 3 sometimes.  I LOVE that he still wants to snuggle with me and is great at giving hugs and kisses.  I LOVE that he will go hug his brother and exclaim "I love you markey".  And even though at times I just want him to leave Mark alone, I do love that he wants to be with his brother and play.  I hope that continues for a long long time.  Right now they are sitting at a table and coloring together and Zach is helping Markey pick out colors....those are the times I love!

Things about Zachary these days:
*Anything sports related.  The other day he told me "Sports make me happy".  Well kid, i think you got lucky and are in the perfect family for that!  He is pretty good I think too and I am excited to maybe have him start playing soccer soon!
*He loves all cars, trucks, trains, motorcycles...basically any mode of transport.
*He is very into little people and figurines.  Playmobil sets have been good for that.
*Could stay outside and play forever....this cold weather has been tough on us!
*Has a great memory...don't make any promises you can't keep cause he WILL call you out on it.
*Is very particular about his stuff and the way things are done, kinda like dad ;-)

I took the day off and have enjoying just chilling with my boys today.  Think we will do lunch and then go to B&N to claim our FREE birthday cupcake!

Happy Birthday, Z Man!
