Handsome Little Devil Turned 3

Patrick, Auretta, Chad and I woke David up by singing happy birthday and giving him a new scooter. He just seemed tired. I didn't know how much he liked it until he woke up from his nap. While rubbing his eyes and doing a semi walk run thing he happy exclaimed, "Happy birthday wake up time?!?" He's been dreaming of a dragon birthday party ever since Patrick's birthday. (They all start planning their parties when it's Patrick's birthday because his is the first of the year. David's is the last so he gets to plan the longest.) Sadly, Walmart didn't have one dragon toy or  paper plates. But a couple of weeks ago after he picked out super hero underwear he let me know he wanted to wear his "PUNCH underwear!" So he got a PUNCH! birthday party. Oh I wish you could hear him say PUNCH. It just isn't the same in type. We had pizza and a cake at the park with some friends and he got stung by a bee. It was sad. All in all it was a great day minus the bee sting. 
He got a really neat tractor from grandma Hansen and liked it. But tractors are really Patrick's thing so Patrick was going crazy when it was announced that David didn't have to share until the next day. The 24 hour no sharing rule. Patrick woke up the next day and said before anything else, "David has to share his tractor today." Patrick ended up sleeping with it. That boy loves cars. David loves everything so he was fine with that, he only needed a few hours with it. P.S. Another funny story revolving around David: He has been potty training and needed to poop one day while I was in the middle of everything. I didn't have time to read to him so I put Curious George on the laptop and put it in the bathroom. The next thing I knew, all of the kids were enjoying Curious George in the bathroom. I got a good laugh and let it go on too long. I couldn't resist the peace and quiet.
