My baby is THREE

My baby turned three today! It kind of seems like he should be older because it feels like he has been here FOREVER. But at the same time it's like "Holy crud he's THREE already!?". Three might be my favorite ever. This kid has THOUGHTS of his own and OPINIONS and gosh is it adorable to hear his little voice talking to me. He is 100% potty trained for a few weeks now, once he decided it was time, he got it and hasn't turned back! No accidents at all! So proud of him. Deacon LOVES anything and everything Superheros. His favorite toys are little superhero toys and STICKS. If we are outside, he will find a stick. And he will play with it FOREVER. Deacon is such a big helper and helps me check the mail, water the flowers, put his clothes away, brush his own teeth, feed/water Gus..and so much more. Deacon loves to dance and declares his favorite "jams" and bobs his head. Deacon has a great sense of humor. This kid laughs at really funny things at the appropriate times that I would laugh, which just kills me. It's so cute. Deacon has a great memory too and recalls things that happened months ago. "Remember when...." He is very polite, and starts every request with 'please'. He will occasionally on his own tell me "Fank You Mommy". In the grocery store if we are passing someone he will say "Excuse me!" Sometimes he says it with too much gusto and it sounds rude haha. Deacon is shy still but is getting so much more social and is just so sweet. He still struggles with hearing other children crying, he will look for me in a panic and cry if someone starts to cry nearby. I love this boy So so very much. He is pure sweetness and brings an immeasurable amount of happiness into our home. I love him soooooooo much!!!!
