Harrison is 3!

My little Harrison is 3 years old! It's hard having his birthday so close to the holidays. Most people know that we also celebrate his half birthday so we spread out the celebrations a little. However, this year his birthday lasted almost a whole week!

We took him and Sam to Santaland at Macy's to see Santa and the Elf display. This would be a normal outing, but they have opened a small Build a Bear in the gift shop which we decided would be a fun little birthday gift for Harrison. He very quickly picked the Elsa bear from Frozen and a basketball. We saw Santa as well. Sam was enthralled and Harrison asked for dominoes (the stacking kind, not the pizza).





Harrison's little party we had on Sunday, just close family, gifts and cake. We kept it short and sweet. Harrison is thrilled with his new Curious George bed. He also got pizza on his actual birthday (and a very sick mommy...) and another birthday dinner courtesy of Grandma.

















3 year old Harrison loves Curious George, chocolate, playing ball, juice, legos, watching videos of dominoes being knocked over on YouTube, our kitties, Cinder, his brother whom he calls "my baby." He can't wait to go to school or playgroup and run around with other kids, those are his favorite days of the week. He says he loves snow, but he also likes to be warm. He loves being praised, I think he feels it's his greatest reward. He also likes being rewarded with stickers.

We've been nerd-training and watching a bit of Doctor Who and Star Wars. He really likes both. He actually has requested both over Curious George in the past week, which says a lot. While watching Star Wars the other day he asked, "Where's Doctor Who?" and it was really adorable. He says Darth Vader is his favorite and doesn't want to watch Return of the Jedi yet because Darth Vader's picture is not on the cover of the DVD case (we've told him Vader is still in it!). When asked what color light saber he would want, he says red... because of Darth Vader. I also asked why he likes Darth Vader so much- "he's cool!"

I officially have an opinionated (very opinionated) 3 year old.
