Andrew's 3rd birthday

Today is Andrew's 3rd birthday. This is an exciting birthday because it is the first one that he knows what is going on. He has gotten really excited about this whole thing. Yesterday I threw a party for him and he loved it!! All of his cousins that live in Pocatello and some from Blackfoot came. It got started about an hour late, but other than that everything went well. Oh ya- except that Isaac Christensen accidently hit Cannon Ball in the head with a bat while were doing the pinyata. It was m fault because I was in charge and didn't tell the kids where to stand, but this is my first time taking charge of a little kid party so I learned some things. I will do better next time. And Cannon ended up ok.
The kids did the pinyata, ate cake and ice cream, and opened presents and that was all. It was very short and sweet. But Andrew loved it and has been talking about it ever since. He especially loved being sung to.
Then today Jake gave him his present. He got him a live turtle. We had to drive out to Blackfoot to pick it up and Andrew had fallen asleep on the way. So when he saw it he was not quite awake and didn't like it at first, but it is growing on him. Now both him and Cameron really like it and call it "My Turtle." It is really cute. Jake set his tank up in their room and they love it.
