Our little Jaser-roo turned 3! He is such a fun member of our family and we all think he is pretty great. He waited so patiently for his birthday to come...he kept saying "my burtday coming up!" In July as Brig blew out his candles he said those words then again in September as he watched Ellie open her presents. He was pretty excited- which made me super excited to celebrate this sweet boy. One of the cool things about Jase is that he is pretty low-key about stuff like this ...so even though he was excited for his birthday he wasn't over the top about it- he was just happy.
We kicked off his birthday with pancakes...I need to get a better plate for these pancakes since my old plastic ones don't make for very appealing photos (the blurry phone pictures don't help either).
Later that morning Cory and I had a funeral that we needed to attend and so Grandma Madsen came and gave Jase her presents and then took all the kids to McDonalds for lunch. They all loved that!
Since his birthday is right in the middle of cold and flu season we didn't get to have very many cousins over (just Ammon & Leslie's family) but we still had lots of fun as he blew out the candle on his bear cupcakes...his "baby bear" cupcakes.
Jase still hasn't mastered speaking clearly yet...most people need me to translate...but that doesn't stop him from saying all kinds of things that make us all laugh and smile and sometimes shock us.
I wish I could really capture his little voice and the way he says his words...hopefully I can write a few things that will help us remember...
"my guys" (he loves his toys that he calls his guys...he even named them Carler and Deeney
"Bid" = Brig...he probably says this more than anything else.
He uses the superlatives "beary" (very) and "super" all the time.
"I Hungee"
He always- ALWAYS- refers to Ty as TyGuy.
He squints his eyes when he talks when he is trying to act big. It's pretty cute.
There are so many other things that he says but letters on a screen or a page just don't do them justice.
Three things that we LOVE about Jase...
1- He loves his toys. He is always asking us to play guys or animals with him. His favorite toys are his horses, his planes and his Guys.
2- His stances. More often then not we will look over at him and he is standing like a model or a full grown adult with his body leaning on the wall and his weight on one leg. He also makes a face in almost every picture that I take...I have to take about 10 and hope I catch him laughing so that I can get his smile!
3- He is tough- rough and tumble and an all around boy!
We sure love you Jase Henry Walker!
Happy Birthday
