He's 3 on the 3rd. See? Like how my birthday is the 19th, so my Golden Birthday was when I turned 19. Get it?
Anyway, in Wisconsin, growing up, Golden Birthdays were like HUGE. Tons of presents, huge parties. It was weird. But it was the thing to do.
And today is Spencer's Golden Birthday.
Well, we celebrated it yesterday (I believe in moving birthdays) and I *think* he had a blast.
Now, PICTURES!
Spencer is way into all things Toy Story and all things Batman. So, I did a Golden Toy Story/Batman birthday. It worked.
He had a new super cape and golden crown. He LOVES to be a superhero.

Too busy playing to stop and smile.
At three years old Spencer:
is potty trained 100% and has been for months. This amazing because I didn't even TRY to potty train Henry until after his third birthday.
is obsessed with Super Heros and Toy Story. He always has a little action figure in his hands.
is generally very VERY easy-going. He has his tantrum moments, but those can almost always be attributed to hunger or fatigue.
wakes up between 5am and 6am every single day. He has done this since birth. I am very tired.
is such a sweet brother. He shares well and loves his brothers.
loves Jesus.
does NOT listen. I mean, like, I'll go, "Spencer, Spencer! SPENCER!" and he'll look all shocked, like, "Are you talking to me?"
can be a REAL stinker-fart-butt. (Like with the listening).
is such a good balance with his brothers.
speaks really well. We understand 99-100% of what he says.
is a sweet, sweet boy.
Spencer has always been such a blessing in our lives. He was an easy baby and has continued to be a gentle force in our family. He is still a normal little boy and can make me furious, but, he's ours. And we're grateful.
Happy GOLDEN birthday, Spencer-Man!

Awesome! Happy Golden Birthday. Except, it's sad for me to think that my golden birthday happened when I was 3 and it's all over and never coming back
So cute! And I'm glad to hear that he got over his dislike of Jesus. ;)
