Isaac Owen is THREE!!!!!
Isaac, the meaning of your name is laughter, which you have certainly lived up to. You bring joy, spunk, life, light, and laughter to every day! You truly know the meaning of rejoicing and being glad in the day at hand. You fill this momma's heart with gratitude to God each time I soak in your radiant smile and experience your vibrant, winsome personality and love for life! You are STRONG, independent, you are a go-getter and a problem solver, mischievous, you love sugar and pop, you rarely complain, you are Mr. go with the flow, assertive, a jokester, you think you are invincible which keeps me on my toes day and night, you are thankful and compassionate (you love babies!), can be pretty aggressive at times too (you certainly hold your own with the big boys), you are very eager to learn and are a quick learner at that, have a hard time winding down at bedtime, don't sit still for long, and you are a precious gift to our family! Happy Birthday Little Man!
You asked for 3 items for your 3rd birthday:
1. Strawberry sucker
2. 2 balloons
3. Choo Choo Cupcakes
Check, check, check! Easy peasy! You were pleased to find all 3 of your requests on the breakfast table in the morning! When you saw the additional gifts (scooter and new tennis shoes) you said, "Why'd you get me this? (referring to the scooter)" I said "Because we thought you'd like it!" Your response, "I like it soooo much. I love you sooooo much, Mom" You've got a very thankful heart that just melts mine!

Could this face be any CUTER?
Your cousins along with Mimi and Poppy joined us at Cosmic Jump to celebrate your big day! You are a little jumping bean with so much energy to spend so it made you very happy!
We went home to snooze in the afternoon then went to Chuck-E-Cheese for dinner. You loved the atmosphere and all the fun games but you still weren't sure about that big mouse! :)
choo choo cupcakes
Micah enjoyed them too!
Ashtyn and Dax new just what to get you since your two favorite things are airplanes and garbabe trucks!
We got you to blow out a candle at Chuck-e-Cheese but you were too excited to take time to eat the cupcake so it was a late night snack right before bed.
Later on that week, it was a kids-eat-free day at Red Robin so we decided to splurge with one more outing to celebrate your sweet life....
A few of your cute sayings:
-I can't know (when you are trying to say that you don't understand something)
-"Uncle Joe Joe" to Daddy when he's not hearing you say "Daddy".... Somehow Uncle Joe Joe gets his attention when Daddy does not
-Hold me up (Pick me up)
-What you say? (this one is my favorite!)
-Mommy, I love you even when you don't give me ice cream
-"Daddy, what am I eating?" Pork Ribs. "I'm eating a porcupine?!"
-Momma, you are so handsome!
-When you are mad at someone you say, "You are not invited to my birtday"
-Will there be blankies in heaven?
-"Mommy, do you have a digger shirt?" Me, No. "Here (taking off the one you were wearing), you can have this one, I'm growing out of it."
-to the waiter at a restaurant as soon as he walks up to take our drink order "My dad has a gun on but it's just our secret!"
Not a cute saying but I have to add that you were the EASIEST kid ever to potty train. In fact, we did nothing at all, you did it all.by.yourself!!!! You decided one day about 3 months ago that you were done with diapers and you were done, just.like.that!!!!! Pee and poop in the potty!!!!!! So PROUD of you.
We love you to the moon and all the way back, Ikey Bear!!!!!
