Parker Turns Three Part 4 - The Real Big Day

It seems as though this birthday lasted forever - so you can see why it took so long for me to post it all! I wouldn't want anyone to miss any of it!

Aunt Andrea came over the night before Parker's birthday and she had some awesome presents for him! He got a new Thomas floor puzzle and The Big Book of Trains! The book teaches all about different kinds of trains and what they do.

Parker woke up early on his birthday to open up more presents! We didn't let him open any family presents at his party, so he had plenty more ahead of him!
Ma Pat and Pa Lar hooked him up with a great fish puzzle, Chuggington matching game, ice cream set for his kitchen and a new music player for all his cool toddler tunes!

Mommy and Daddy found a great new Excavator for the park! It has already gotten a lot of use.

Grandma and Grandpa Culver sent along a new Captain Hook bath toy, Captain Hook's boat to go with his other Jake toys, and a great Cat In The Hat in Space book!

His big birthday present from Mommy and Daddy was a new scooter!

We are still mastering the technique of "scooting" but when spring really comes I am sure he will get lots of practice.

We had to wait a bit to open the gift from Uncle Jim because he was on West Coast time and wasn't awake when the 3 year old wanted to open presents. So we waited until after we had done our other outings for the day to come back and open up that present.

It was Skull Rock! It is so cool and lots of fun to play with Bucky and the new Captain Hook ship.

To celebrate his official birthday we went to The Cheesecake Factory for dinner. It was a little busy because it was President's Day but after some persuasion of the hostesses we were able to sit down and get Parker the ice cream sundae he was promised after his chicken! Happy Birthday Big Boy!
