3 years old!

I can't believe how fast time goes by. Cian is already 3 years old. He is loving being a "big boy!" He was moved up into his preschool class, which he loves because they have a pet rabbit and goldfish. Two very important things needed to enjoy school, obviously.

Cian is still pretty quiet and shy around new people. Like Uncle Noel says "like a cold car, Cian has to warm up". But once he is comfortable with you, he turns into a total goofball. He is so funny, does a little happy dance if you can catch it, and makes the strangest noises and faces now. Has a total sugar addiction (100% my fault- hello sprinkles on your pancakes!). He could live off of jellybeans, donuts and ice cream w/ sprinkles. Dr Seuss books have become his latest favorite books- Fox with Socks with pure torture to a parent who just worked all day, ran home and made dinner, cleaned up, gave a bath and is now counting the minutes until they can collapse. Here- read this rhyming, tongue twister book as fast as possible!

The cats have a hate / run for your life / sort of like relationship with Cian. When he pets them, they love him. The other times he is chasing them, shoving a toy in their face or trying to poke their nose. Still scared of dogs and won't go near them - no matter how small. He just loves little babies and wants one badly. Even asked Brian last week if he could buy one! He thinks that his cousin Shea is his little sister, because "Jackson got Carter."

He is the sweetest, most lovable little boy and we just love him to bits. His hugs and kisses are the best thing in the world and I count my blessings every day that we got this little miracle. Its so much fun to watch him learn and grow. Not so much fun to listen to the whining or be completely ignored --- ahhhhh, three is fun! Regardless, we wouldn't change a thing. Its been such a blast having Cian, just can't believe it was three years ago he was born.
