A precious 3 year old

We have a darling three year old in our family now. Seth is the sweetest thing ever, and we thank our lucky stars that he is our little guy.  He's so much fun to have around.  He is still absolutely obsessed with cars of any kind, and the love spreads to airplanes, motorcycles, boats, you name it!  He is also a little water baby.  He swims like a pro at the pool, and seems to love having his head under the water.  It's a hoot watching him in the tub!  He also potty-trained this spring.  We thought it was going to be a disaster, but he ended up doing great with it.  I think that being diaper free and naked was what sealed the deal.  We are still working on getting him back into undies and pants after he goes potty.  He's talking like a little human now, and getting ready for pre-school.  He asks every day if it's time for pre-school yet.  Can't believe he's so excited. He loves having kids around and is a very social child.  We just love our little Sether-doodle to death!!!

Seth's love of anything motorized has recently developed into a love of rocket-ships and "space guys."  And so, the Star Wars craze that every little boy goes through has begun.

He's also a wild child out on the scooters and bikes.  He got a balance bike for his birthday.  He loves taking in down hills, but doesn't have a whole lot of patience to push it around on the flat group.  We'll see if he gets any better at it.

What a little sweetie pie.  I think his smile is magical.

And here's a little of his goofy personality.  He's got an adorable sense of humor!

The beauty of this cake is that it is supposed to look like a construction site!  Muddy mess and all.  Do you love it how we have another family's family picture in the background?  We celebrate his birthday at a friend's house.  And it looks like it was getting a little late - we missed the smiles at this point.

We love our precious little buddy.  And a birthday post would never be complete without mentioning our beautiful birth-mom, who we think about all the time.  We love her more than we could have imagined, and we tell Seth about her often.  She is an angel to us and we are so thankful for the selfless choice she made three years ago.
