Jason's Birthday and Christmas

Jason's Birthday is just before Christmas. I hope I didn't confuse the kid too bad this year--we were traveling to Idaho for Christmas day, so we had an early Christmas. Our early Christmas just happened to land on Jason's birthday (the day before we left to travel)...and I wanted him to have a birthday that was separate from Christmas, so we had his early birthday two days before our early Christmas (his real birthday) and had the real Christmas on Christmas day :)

This little guy is so much fun to have around. Each child that we have I just love the new stages they go through and all the new things they learn. Jason's into the Super Hero stage. He runs around acting like a super hero all the time, I think I mentioned it in the previous post. He got this Captain America mask and shield and LOVES it. That was the first present he opened. Then he did a bunch of super hero poses.



We convinced him there were more presents he should open and he would like the others, too. He did, but wouldn't take off the mask and would only put the shield down while he was busy with the wrapping paper.



He took some breaks to look in the mirror with his meanest Captain America super hero face.



More breaks for poses.



And still more posing. He doesn't even care about the other presents :)



We sure love our little three year old. He brings us entertainment and excitement every day. The last few days Captain America has gotten a break because he now has been running around with green pajama bottoms and does his best (loud) hulk roar. He'll also inform you that hulk does NOT wear a shirt, or shoes or socks. It's quite a struggle to convince him he needs to wear these things when we go to the store or anywhere else. Then as soon as we get home he strips and puts on his hulk pants. Trevor thought it would be funny to put green food coloring in the toilet once as he went, so he would think he was peeing like hulk or something. Jason figured out his little trick and insists that I get the food coloring every time he needs to go. I'll entertain this for a little longer, then maybe introduce a new super hero or something.


Christmas (both of them) were great! Here's a picture of our early Christmas.

And for some reason I forgot the camera for the Christmas in Idaho with all the family around!! Nice. I had my phone so I got a couple with that, but none were very clear so I'm not posting them. Jason got sick as we were driving and continued to throw up the whole way there. Then Ashley also got sick so we spent most of the first day and a half in Idaho with a couple of sick kids. Also the day after we got back, Trevor and Tyler got sick. Along with Grandma and Grandpa. Good times. Still, it was worth it to see everyone and I'm glad the busy times have slowed down a bit!
