Herbie Party: part four, people came!

September 22nd, 2009

Three year olds are so capricious.  They start out hugging their friends.

They nicely share a burger.

They let the grown ups chat and eat.

They get out their wiggles in a healthy manner.

They even share new swing sets nicely.

They maybe take turns with the one basketball (which is really a dog ball, shhh!).

And then someone gets hit because of a beach ball, even when there are more beach balls than guests.  And, a certain birthday boy spends three minutes of his party in time out.

It is not just The Son, even H, one of the sweetest three year olds I know, has problems with sharing every once in awhile.  Who could blame him! Look how cool Herbie is!

Presents were opened–and put away to prevent further sharing problems.  I love my kid so much…but I know him and his special toys and what happens to the person who tries to play uninvited.  And, we want to keep these friends.  More on the guitar later.

Oh goody, more cars!  I swear we could open a line of dealerships.  Except he keeps removing all of the cars’ tires.  I am now extremely proficient in hotwheel tire care.

And, here we have Sweet Baby G, and my MMiL, in a photograph I like to call  “A Hint.”  She does look nice holding a baby girl.  You had better get on it BiL.

Remember how I said this was the last birthday post?  I lied.  There is one more, called the after party jam session.

    Ok, I do need to defend my sweet (ha!) baby in that picture. While he was maybe a teeny tiny bit over protective of Herbie at that moment, I think some of the rage shown in that face was due to him being frustrated because the other boys kept moving the racing stripes and #3 emblem around on the picnic table. He was having an OCD minute and was just protecting the decorations :) But to be fair, notice that H is the only one at the table without a cake plate. By this point he’d already flipped backwards off the table taking his cake with him.

    You did an awesome job on that party! Do you do princess parties, too? ;)
