2 years + 11 months

Oh my goodness, one more month til Declan is the big 3!  Wow, I have a feeling this month is going to fly by and we don't want it to:)  He's been pretty busy the last month, wearing big guy undies, helping build and plant our garden, moving dirt and working in the yard with dada and of course making us laugh and smile everyday.  He's actually been a very big help with all of the yard/garden work...he loves to dig in the dirt, shovel it in the wheel barrow, but mostly wear his gloves:)  He's super excited that we have strawberries in the garden and can't wait to eat them when they grow (I hope they don't take too long).  This almost 3 year old eats ALL of the time, I'm not kidding, he'll eat 2 waffles for breakfast and tell me he's still hungry, so I give him a bowl of strawberries...20 minutes later "I still hungry Mama!", are you kidding me?!  This goes on all day, even after an egg, string cheese and turkey sandwich..."I still hungry Mama!"...he's a bottomless pit!  What are we going to do when Conall starts eating like this?  He'll even hold up his shirt and show me that his belly is hungry!  Declan has really been into an Easter book that we have renewed from the library three times and we read every night and sometimes during the day...it cracks me up how he gets hung up on certain books, especially ones about holidays:)  The pool opens in a couple of weeks and we can't wait to see how he does this year.  He's already talked about the slide, so maybe he'll love it this year!  And it will be so nice not to have to put swim diapers on him!  Let's just hope he doesn't go in the pool, too much:)  Oh boo, we love you and are excited to celebrate your 3rd birthday soon!
