The much anticipated birthday #3 arrived this weekend. We had Matthew's party on Sunday and actually ended up having a good group of friends over. We found a little boy Matthew's age that lives near by and they had a blast together. We of course made a train cake and it actually turned out really cute; I completed the magic with a roundhouse. My favorite was the hopper car full of gold sprinkles. It really looked like it was carrying a load of gold. 
I didn't get any pictures of his presents but we got him a new motorized engine that pulls his cars around the track. He LOVES it. That is all he plays with and he's only had it for 2 days and we are already on battery #3 because that poor train is running nearly nonstop. (I'm hoping the fun slows down a little or it is going to end up being a quite expensive present with all the batteries.) He also got a swim noodle for the pool, a couple of new books, and a new piggy bank (it was one Justin got on his mission). Our friends bought him a Thomas movie and got him a couple of shirts-so nice of them!! He also got a baseball tee and some new shoes from Grammy Tami which he opened before we left Idaho. Grandma Tanya got him a cool buzz lightyear with a rocket that he found during the move and just couldn't wait to open. His friend Oliver even mailed him a cool car that arrived on his birthday. So he had a pretty smokin' awesome birthday. 
On Monday, his actuall birthday, he enjoyed all the phone calls from his family. We also started POTTY TRAINING!! He had been so excited and told everybody he met that when he turned 3 he would be potty training. Kind of a funny way to celebrate a birthday, but he loved getting to wear his undies.
