HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY, DOZER!

Belatedly posted by mommy.
Me: Who’s birthday is it today?
Dozer: Chichen’s… (his way of saying his name, even though it sounds like he’s saying chicken)
Me: Say my birthday.
Dozer: Noooo, it MY burday mommy!!!
And so it went until we got to How old are you now? and he’d reply his name Chichen… Eventually he lost his temper and growled at me like *I* was the one that didn’t understand!
I had a video clip of our conversation, trying to blow out candles (which he is apparently not very good at doing), riding the carousel at Chuck E. Cheese, and his great stash of presents (including an entire Brio set of wooden train tracks and cars– that are battery operated!!!– that I purchased for 75% off earlier this year). But I was foiled by technology when the memory card for my camera got bent and now it won’t fit into the computer.
Anyhoo, Happy belated 3rd Birthday my big boy and big helper! I love your outgoing personality, the way you always insist on being in the thick of things (most of the time), your independent spirit, your big grin, how you always bring me flowers and a kiss, how you can kick a ball straight and far, and even your love of fwogs…

I can't wait to put pics on my blog. I like how you arranged the pictures as he grew.

awe…
they grow up so fast don't they? My Jake will be 9 on the 17th and my Gevan will be 11 on the 19th of this month. We have some celebrating to do too!
Give that cutie a hug and tell him his mommy's friend said "Happy Burday!!"
Have a great weekend Marsha!

That is one precious birthday boy!
I had to comment – my oldest referred to herself in third person until she was 3 or 4 too – and it cracks me up to remember!

I normally don't have time to go to all the links I would like to. But today, I am thankful that I went to yours. You have encouraged me with your way of writing, your pictures, and your obvious love for your family. I plan on visiting a lot and adding you to my list. I look forward to getting to know you.

I ablolutely love your blog! And, yes, I feel connected because I have two lovely boys as well (would like to have a third, I think), and they are ages 41/2 and 21/2. I can relate to just about everything I have read so far! You are a very good writer. It is fun to read your writing. I find myself flowing through all kinds of different emotions at the same time…
And, thank you for visiting my site. I read your comment just a little bit ago. I want to clear something up… I do not have a green thumb…LOL! It is a miracle that my seedlings have actually turned into real plants, and I only have one of each of the four plants at that. That is the funny part! Any other plant I have tried to keep eventually always turns brown (due to lack of water, I think) and dies off! I think it drives my MIL nuts! When she comes to visit she is always walking around and watering what she sees (bless her heart, she is a sweetie).
By the way, I absolutely love the two boys singing Awesome God! I love that song, too. I watched it last night, and I still can't get the lyrics out of my head. They are too cute!

Hello Marsha,
Oh Happy Birthday to your little one!
Birthdays are always fun.. I enjoyed the pictures you had posted…loved the Spiderman one.
Hey, congrats about being on the HSB homepage, and in the newsletter…normally I see stuff like that, but never "know" anyone…well at least thier blogs… so it was fun to see you on there.
I hope you have a wonderful day with your family…
Sincerely,

I LOVE those baby pictures. Isn't it so hard to believe just how fast they grow up?!
Loved your article in the blogging newsletter. You are such the Comment Queen. You have undoubtedly blessed many with your comments at HSB!!
Wishing Chichen a happy birthday and you many many comments!

3 already?!
Oh man, is he cute! What a little doll!
The pic on the little horse cracks me up- we have a silly one like that of my 2nd boy on a little horse, it's almost the same shot, and it's been one of our family's favorite pics for years! Too cute!
Happy belated birthday to your little guy!
Have a good rest of your week,
enjoy them,
ali

Hi. I came by your blog a few days ago and read quite a bit, then got interupted before I could leave a comment. When I saw you featured on the email today, it reminded me to come back by! Good for you to leave comments. I try to *always* leave comments. As you said, I hope it is an encouragement to others.
Your boys are cuties. Happy Belated Birthday to your little one. I sure hope you can retrieve your pictures.

Oh my, Marsha!!
I was just catching up a little on life in Texas. No, I'm not there, but still dreaming of that day.
Happy Birthday to that baby boy!!
How have you been? It looks like life is delightful for all of you! Life is pretty okay here.
I will stop by more consistently. OH! I saw your article on The Oldschool House!!!! How cool is that?!?!?!

I love your "Boy" stories…especially the "toilet ship" story. I have 4 boys and one special girl. Let me say the kids have some FANTASTIC imaginations! Be Blessed!
PS. Do you still wear the sparkle shoes? they are FAB!

How sweet! Makes me tear up a little
My little one "Ashton" turns 3 on Saturday
Jocelyn on November 14th, 2007 8:54 pm
for your words about commenting on other people's blogs. I often wonder if people have read mine or what they thought so I'm glad you have that encouraging ministry!
God bless.

Happy Birthday to your sweet little one! I haven't been by in a while and but through God's timing I'm slowly trying.

Happy Birthday to your little one!! They grow so fast!! We have a 3rd birthday coming up in 2 months. I can't believe it! &
Congratulations on being the top commenter!! You comment queen, I hope you get a gazillion comments for yourself !!! =)
Oh yeah & don't worry my kids talk often goes straight to potty talk (mostly the boys), you are not alone! LOL!
Christy on November 14th, 2007 7:08 pm
What cuties you have. I have 11 & 12 year old boys and the talk keeps going. Actually, a lot like what you described in your last post. I just found your blog. I will be back.
