Drew celebrated his 3rd birthday today I can't believe it has been 3 years already! He had a great day and is working on a week long party. On Saturday he got to go to Chucky E Cheese with his cousins and my family, today he played at the Treehouse Museum with his friends Logan and Rylee and went to lunch. Tonight he had his friends over for cake and ice cream and Saturday he will get to have more birthday fun with his Barker cousins. He is a pretty funny kid and loved every part of his fire truck party, he loves any kind of present as soon as his friends arrived he took the gift from them and opened it before anyone could even come in the house. One highlight included a late present brought by the mailman from Amazon that I was really relived made it just in time. Tonight as he was saying his prayers he was thankful for his friends, his party, his birthday, and the mailman for getting him that Iron man mask. I tried to clarify later that the gift was from me and Dean and that he just brought it for us, but I am pretty sure he thinks it is from him. So thank you mailman for getting it to us, even if you did leave it on my neighbors porch all day.
A few things Drew loves:
1. Being with his cousins and family
2. Playing with his friends
3. Dinosaur Chicken Nuggets

So today Drew and I went on a little Sunday walk, well Drew ran. The weather was awesome! The snow can't melt fast enough for me. We came across a very large stick, shown in photo. He was dragging it around and hitting the snow with it. He started hitting a large pine tree at the church and knocking all the needles off so I said don't hit the tree that is not nice, it hurts the tree. Drew replies, Well I need to find some squirrels. What will you do when you find squirrels? I asked, I will kill them with my stick. I was surprised, a little nervous, yet laughed right out loud. Then I said Drew that is not very nice, his reply, well they are mean. How he knows this I have no idea...

Tonight as we were finishing our very productive home evening. We asked Drew if he wanted to say the prayer, he said yes and sat himself up on the coffee table and folded his arms. Instead of the prayer he informed us that there is a big problem. We asked him what the problem was he promptly walked over to our end table and picked up our engagement picture and said where is me? We informed him that he was not born and in heaven, that didn't mean to much to him, so he went to the other side of the room and picked up a picture of all 3 of us and said here I am and there is my mommy and my daddy! He is a pretty funny kid!
My sister had her baby today! Today was actually his due date but it was no easy feat. She went in last night about 5 and it was slow going. Finally about 6 this morning it was time to get him here. Poor kid was turned the wrong way and when they finally got him out the cord was wrapped around his neck 2 times and he was blue and not breathing, the nurses were great and bagged him quickly and he was able to cry. Mel only got to see him for like 30 seconds and they rushed him to the nicu Spencer went with him. Poor Mel just wanted to know what was going on my parents were there too so they could keep her upated. After a few hours he was doing great and they were just monitoring him so she was able to go to the nicu and hold him. Since this afternoon he has been in with them and doing really well. They are going to keep an eye on him for a few days. Mel and Spenc seem to be handling it all really well. It is scary enough when it is your first baby and then to have to deal with all that. We are all just grateful he is here and doing so well!! He is a cutie too! He looks like a Lifferth but they are good looking so that is okay!
