We Have a Three-Year-Old!!....?!!

Grant turned three last month and in true Mike fashion, he ensured that Grant got a little boy's dream party!

We did a Ninja Turtle theme, since Grant was pretty into them at the time and we think they're cool! :)
We had pizza...(just like Michaelangelo, Grant says)
Then the boys had to eat the "green ooze" (green Jello) to become Ninja Turtles
Then they went to ninja training where they karate chopped and broke "boards"

Then they had to punch through a "green barrier" to find out which Ninja Turtle they were going to be.
Then they got their "weapons"
Some good-lookin' Ninja Turtles!
Mike made this city scape so they could jump over it and take pictures. It didn't work as well as we hoped, and we had a few accidents, but they still had fun!
Getting ready for their big fight scene!
They had to fight off the "foot soldiers"


Then they had the ultimate challenge-defeating "Shredder" and his Goon.
This is a really pathetic picture of the food, but oh well! It's documented!
I can't believe our little man is 3!!  He's so smart, we've been telling him for several months now that when he's three he couldn't go to sleep with milk anymore and we can't believe how on his birthday, he just quit cold turkey and never even asked for it! He told us several times that he couldn't have it, and wouldn't even let his babysitter give him milk with his PB&J.   We LOVE this boy!!
Then Grant got to sit on his Ninja Turtle chair and open all his gifts
It was a great party! Thanks so much to everyone who took time out of their Saturday to come!  We all had a lot of fun!

I told Biz to smile and here's what she gave me.  She's such a ham! She had fun following all the boys around trying to get involved!

Wow. I really want to go to this party. Don't misunderstand me; I like you guys and everything, but I really want to BE a ninja turtle.

Also, that last picture is pretty much fantastic.
