Happy 3rd Birthday, Duncan!


Check out our quick photo shoot !

I can't believe he's 3. So conversational, kind hearted, rambunctious, and as cuddly as ever.
 We did a small birthday for Duncan this year after the big one last year. We visited Chuck E Cheese (which we won't be doing again any time soon) with a friend and later celebrated at home as a family. He got some sweet toys and waaay too much cake.
A "Dinosaur Cake" as requested. We were going for the Paleozoic look...or Paleolithic..or whatever. =) Duncan assisted with the baking (which he loves to do...and he's my expert at cracking eggs) and Liv with the decorating. We had so much fun without worrying about "impressing" anyone with our skills. =)
When you ask Duncan how old he is he replies, "I'm Duncan!" incredulously. You have to ask him how many years old he is to get the correct response. So cute.
I found this plush anaconda at the Smithsonian museum shop while on my trip a few weeks ago. It was a hit..and worth dragging around DC after I bought it.
We also got Duncan a Hexbug crab which is entirely too old for him and I think he already broke it as I write this- a mere 5 hours after receiving it. But he adores Liv's Xia Xia crabs and isn't allowed to play with them (apparently for good reason) so after I suggested we get him one of his own Justin informed me that "no son of his will own a xia xia anything as long as hex bugs exist."
