Our baby is three!

a little uncomfortable

Amidst all of the decorating for Christmas yesterday, we celebrated Abram's birthday.  He is such a fun, entertaining little fellow, and we are glad that he is part of our family!  We let him open up his presents first thing and he was as happy as a clam all day playing with them and was so good about letting Nolan play with everything as well!  We got some pictures taken lately, and I love this sequence of Abram (beginning with the one above)- it shows his personality so well!! He tries to be funny and has such a happy disposition most all of the time.

goofy

laughing at himself

ending with his trade-mark huge smile!!

When he got up from his nap yesterday, he requested a hamburger, and since it was his birthday and all, Shawn took him out to get one!!  When he had finished up, Shawn said, "Well, are you ready to go?"  Abram said, "Let's just visit for a few minutes." Shawn said, "Do you want to visit in the car?" No. He wanted to visit IN the restaurant, so Shawn sat and "visited" with him until he was ready to go!

We are crazy about this little guy- he keeps us laughing at what he does and says, and he is so grateful and loving! I love how thankful he is for everything - he's always the first to say thank you and notices the little things that people do for him. It's not uncommon for him to come up to one of us, and out of the blue say something like, "thank you for helping me find my other shoe yesterday".

Last night Grandma and grandpa and Aunt Linda and Aunt Kristi and her kids came over to have some batman birthday cake, made for Abram by Caden because Abram REALLY likes batman right now:)

We had this bat costume from when Cade was little, and Abe told everyone he was batman in it this Halloween
