Jefferson's Birthday Part I

Jeffers' birthday falls on or around conference so we usually celebrate his birthday that weekend with my family. He is to the age now where he understands what's going on so it was a lot more fun. All day Sunday he kept asking, "Mama, sing happy day song?" It was really funny. We did have to sing and let him blow out his candles twice. He even practiced blowing, but a good portion of the time spit came with it. Just ask Jessie.

His fun dirt cake with worms and bugs. He loved it. He would have eaten all the worms and bugs if we had let him.

He got so excited when we started singing to him. He was beside himself with glee. Blowing and blowing
My gosh, he is getting so big. He's not my little boy anymore. Sad.
Everyone pretty much hit the Jackpot when it came to presents. Aunt Jessie gave him Cars books and it took about 10 minutes to get him to put them aside to open the other presents. Jessie became his fav this weekend. He would follow her around saying, "Jessie, jessie" It was cute.
Nana and Papa got Jefferson a shirt and a Thomas magnadoodle thingy. He really enjoys watching it disappear. He will hold up his hands in the air and announce every time it "disappears".
From Jason and I, Jefferson received dinosaur stuff. He loves them. It was so hard to wait to give them to him because Friday and Saturday he was asking for dinos and I had to keep saying no. When he opened the bag he would say, "Wow, a dinosaur!" with each one. We are glad he likes them. He also got a dino encyclopedia and a floor mat to play with his dinos on. We had to start immediately and he takes some dinos to bed with him. It is a lot of fun to watch his excitment.

Kelli, notice that he is wearing your Harley shirt in honor of your gift.


Thanks for everything everybody. We had a great time. Even on the way home Jefferson was asking if we could go to Grandma's today. I tried to explain that we were there and had just left, but whatever.

  1. Happy birthday to Jefferson! I'm glad he had so much fun. My Nicholas was born April 1 so we celebrate during conference weekend, too, so that the whole family can be together. And my Connor will be 3 at the end of April so it's party central around here. Can you believe how big our boys are getting?!

  2. He looks so cute in that picture with his cake, growing so fast. And he's a stud in that "otter-cycle" shirt of his! Looks like a ton of fun. Happy birthday to Jeffers!!

  3. Happy Birthday to Jefferson! I was going to mention it on the phone. He's so cute with his new presents and how excited he was! So, Landon will bring a present to Jefferson on Friday! I did buy a present for Jefferson at Christmas time, but I don't know if he'll like it, so I might get something else. It's a puzzle by Melissa and Doug with like 8 vehicles that make sounds? Tyson's bringing Landon in the morning, so I can sleep in a little cause I am up way too late.

  4. Would Jefferson be interested in that? I want Landon to be able to give a present. He'll probably have a hard time giving it, then not trying to take it. I was saying it's Jefferson's birthday, and Landon would say "no, it's my birthday!" I told him first it's Jefferson's birthday then his in 5 weeks. It was cute that's he starting to understand the birthday concept as Jefferson is also!
