My Baby Is 3!

Last night we had a family party to celebrate Patch turning 3. His grandparents came and spoiled him. He was tuckered out from his first party, we had to wake him up to re-celebrate.
Added note: If you look closely you'll see my cute friends playing Rock Band. After the friend party for Patch, Krissy was locked out and it only made sense we set up rock band. She should do that more often. Shalynn had never played before and she ROCKED!

Just look at that beautiful boy! Three years ago I sent my hubby and Tyler off to hockey practice while my best friend Cobi, took me to the hospital to get that kid out! Really not much to tell, sadly. Everything went quick and orderly. I even came home early on account of being totally neglected. I could get that at home.
Patch was really a great baby. He didn't fuss much, and I thought he was going to be as easy as Alexa was. Then...he turned 1. We've been on a rough road ever since, but I think he's finally coming around. Patch was named by his brother, Tyler. T was 5 at the time, and he really liked Patrick Roy (waa) the goalie for the Avalanche. Tyler drew a picture of Patrick and spelled it Pachrick, and it stuck ever since.
Patch is such a funny man like Tyler, he is strong willed and physically strong like Caely and tender but dramatic at the same time like Alexa. What a great mix! I can't believe how he has changed our lives and made us stronger. He's always first to say prayers. He lights up when I walk into a room. He says the funniest things. He really is a joy.
Patch, you have blessed our lives and taught us so much. We love you! Love, Mom & Dad
