We have a THREE year old in our house!!!

Oh my goodness! Where has the time gone? My precious baby boy is growing into a handsome little young man! The past month has been very difficult for our family, so we are so happy to celebrate with and for Davis!
Davis turned 3 last Thursday, Sept. 4th, and we have had a week of partying around the Henson household! Unfortunatley Davis caught a virus Tuesday of last week and had to stay home from school with Pops on his actual birthday! The good news is that he was feeling much better on Thursday. He just need to rest up and gain back some strength.
Thursday night we celebrated at Mimi and Pops house with Papa and Nana. We have pizza and cake, luckily! LOL! The luckily because Davis "broke" the cake as he likes to tell everyone! I picked up a small cake at Sam's Thursday afternoon. D was instructed to only look/not touch. He did well until we took it to Mimi and Pops' house. Being the smart mother that I am I arrived at their house without Marleigh's bag, so I had to run back home. Praise the Lord we only live 5 min. away. I returned to Davis telling me he had broken the cake and my parents laughing in hysterics. Seems that D decided to pull the cake down for a look by himself. Luckily he caught it and was able to hold on to the lips of the container while screaming "HELP!" I am not sure how he managed as it was between his belly and the dishwasher. It looked a little crazy, but tasted yummy nonetheless! So funny how the layers actually slid!

Of course D was spoiled with gifts after the cake and ice cream! A drum set (which IS staying at Mimi and Pops' house!) Dinosaurs, dvds, and a Bullseye Ball Game!



For those of you who don't know Davis has been talking about his Birthday party since uummm... March! He was quite clear he wanted a Dinosaur Jumpy Party, so that is exactly what he got!
My best job of a money shot (of course some kids would not come out of the inflatables and some kept crawling out of the pics, a few were camera shy)


Ms. Jamie and Ms. Marleigh not sure about the big kids behind them!



At first even the parents were intimidating as they have some of the highest inflatables I have ever seen with huge steep slides, but the kids were wide open! They climbed to the top like it was nothing and came ZOOMING down the slides!


Marleigh was quite excited to see her friend Jamie!



Of course the dads were in the on the action and the little princesses took their first slide together!

Of course after it was over the dads looked a little more stunned than the girls! :)

The kids were worn out by party time. Here I caught Jonathan and Davis resting and catching up on the fire truck climb.



Here is D with cousin Clarke after a FAST trip down the Octopus ship!

Hannah, what a cutie! You may be camera shy, but I gotcha!

Lori and Jamie

Ashley and Copeland



Madden on the rebound, while his new baby brother, Graham, slept through the action!

The B-day Boy and his Cake!


Making himself at home in his throne!

Of course if you ask D about his party. He is quick to say, "It was SO fun! Can we do it again?" Maybe next year baby! :)

This was our first time at the Jump Zone in Buford and it was AWESOME! I highly recommend them. This was our easiest party EVER by a long shot! So nice to leave when the party ends and let someone else clean it all up!

Happy Birthday Davis! Mommy, Daddy and Sissy love you so much!

We are so proud of the young man you are becoming!
