Yippee For Three.

Oh Colin Patrick, where do we start! We can't believe you are already three years old. Where does the time go? You are amazing. Your second year of life was filled with so many changes, and you took them all in stride. You are smart, funny, sincere, kind and inquisitive. You make us laugh! You talk a lot. You love life. You love your family and friends. You like to be outside exploring. You love sports. You love Batman! You make us proud everyday.

We decorated the night before your birthday, so you'd wake up and be surprised!

 Trying on your cape!

We had chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast.

Present time!

The best part of all...Daddy took the day off of work and we went to the Buffalo Zoo! We had the best time! It was a gorgeous day outside. The animals must have thought so too, because ALL of them were out and moving around. I don't think I've had a better zoo experience!

How fitting...

Right when we walked over to the bear, he started taking a bath!

Colin's favorite animal at the zoo.

And how could I not do the "Colin on the blanket with bear" picture! It's a yearly tradition, right?

Here is Colin at one year and two years old.
