Gavin Scott - 3 years

A special little boy turned 3 years old. We had a little party at home with family the weekend before  and per Gavin's request, it was spiderman theme.

Jason decorated this cake and I was blown away with it. It was perfect. A spider web with GAVIN in it.

I think his favorite part of the whole day was when we sang happy birthday to him. We sang two times this night and he loved blowing out the candles.

On the day of Gavin's actual birthday, June 26. Cupcakes and more signing!

Fun facts about Gavin:
1. He is my early riser. I hear him get out and bed and when I look out of my door, I see him standing in his doorway looking at me. He then comes running into my room and climbs into bed with me and asks to watch PBS
2. He has the fattest feet- flip flop sandles do not fit. Not even close. I finally found some sandles with 2 straps that will work. They are as tall as they are wide.
3. Loves making us laugh. If it causes a laugh, he will do it again and again and again.
4. Says a ton of words, big words even, but its not always easy to understand him. Reegan is often our interpreter. If we are struggling to understand she will tell us what he is saying.
5. Jumps- all the time. Off furniture (even though he knows he is not supposed to), everything and everywhere.
6. Will do/play with whatever Reegan wants to play with (most of the time).
7.  Requests Chick-fil-a for lunch whenever I ask him what he wants to do that day.
8. Loves spiderman and dinosaurs
9. Can count to 39, skipping a few numbers here and there. Knows his ABC's, loves to read and can recognize all his letters and most numbers 1-20.
10. Is so excited about going to preschool next year (talks about it multiple times a week), but will cry and throw a huge fit when the day comes to drop him off and I leave (he is a momma's boy)
11. Is huge!!!! 36 pounds (86%ile) and 40 inches (95%ile)
12. Is the best brother! Love Reegan and Emerson and tells them often. He loves to hold the baby, kiss her and hug her and wants to play with Reegan always.
13. He is very sensitive. If you look at him too sternly or raise your voice he will often burst into tears. If Reegan doesn't want to play with him or we don't let him hold the baby I can see the sadness in his eyes.
14. The sweetest little guy. Gives us kisses and hugs and loves taking naps with me.
15. Twirls his hair. Always when he is tired and many other times during the day as well.
