Happy 3rd Bday Rhett!

I'm a day late posting this but I had pictures come up after I would've been posting anyway....sorry...

Rhett turned 3!! How is this possible?! He was just born! OMG this little boy is sooo full of life, mischief and spunk! He is officially PACI-FREE too! On Sunday, we lost it, unintentionally, and when he lost is other one (he had 2 for the longest time that were his favorites) we told him that was just the Paci Fairy coming to take his to give it to a newborn baby that needed it much more than he did. He was fine w/ that! SO. Sunday, when he lost his only one left, I kinda panicked...do I buy a new one or stick to the plan Miss Liz and I made (at 3, NO MORE PACI)? SO.. I pulled up my big girl panties and told him, the paci fairy came again and reminded him of the deal that when he turned 3 there would be no more paci and that she took the paci to wrap it up for a special baby that would be born on his birthday. He said,
"Ok....that's ok."
WHAT? OK SO IN MY HEAD, I played it up to be this HUGE dramatic ordeal, since we were on the way to church, Josh was still gone to his conference and I was alone with the kids, but nope.. nothing... not even a whimper! He didn't ask for it EVER again... NOT EVEN AT BEDTIME! IN FACT, HE SLEPT ALL NIGHT SUNDAY! He has not asked for it again, well maybe once or twice, but I reminded him of the new baby who needed it more and he again said, "Ok." He did tell Miss Liz yesterday, "Ya know there's a new baby who has my pacis? I've gotta find that baby." HAHAH OMG.... I DIED...
So that was a milestone, bigger for me than him I think! It is bittersweet though because that was the last "baby thing" for him and now he's a big boy. I guess tying his shoes is next? :(
Happy Birthday (yesterday) sweet Bubby!
He gets a big party on the 25th with all his friends at the jumpy house place!
He had a special party w/ his daycare friends at Miss Liz and was sooo excited for his Ninja Turtle cupcakes and to "blow da candles!"

 Rhett got some really cool big boy boots from Mammy & Pop Pop for his birthday! He LOVES HIM SOME COWBOY BOOTS!

At Woods is their favorite place!

His last day and night as a 2 year old... :(

"Mommy...why you crying?" Because sweet boy...this is the last night I get to tuck you in as a 2 year old baby boy cause tomorrow you will be my big 3 year old boy! "Don't cry mommy... i still yuv you." :)
