Ben is three!!

Last Saturday we celebrated Ben's 3rd birthday. I can't believe he is already three, I am in shock. He thinks its no big deal, because he's a big boy you know?!

We had a small party and celebrated with Ben's cousin Dean, who turned 2 just the day before. Just family and close friends, and it was a perfect party for them. They had a blast playing together, and LOVED their cake.









Today was Ben's 3 year checkup. We haven't been to the doctor with Ben since last June. He had pinkeye, they didn't measure him or anything. The time before that was for his 2 year checkup. He was 50th% for weight and 75th% for height.

One year later my kid has become a giant. He is 90-95% for height and 95% for weight. The doctor said he is the size of an average 5 year old. WHOA! Everyone always comments that he is so tall, and people always guess his age at 4 or 5 but I always thought they were crazy. He's 3 he looks 3! I guess I was the crazy one.

Anyway, the 3 year appointment was an easy one, no ouchies! They just played games like jumping and signing songs and finding the letters in a book. Ben thought it was a blast and told me that "that doctor was the nicest" after the visit.
Very nice to not have a stressful appointment!
