Andrew's Birthday!

Andrew's Birthday is Oct 4th and in 09 he turned 3. My family came over and we had fun watching him open all his presents! And just to warn you, there are a LOT of pictures. I just couldn't decide, so I uh....did them all. So make sure you have a lot of time and you're comfortable before you start.
He's just opened his Lighten McQueen Sheets from Nana and Papa, I was explaining to him what they were but he was SOOOOO excited about the picture of LMQ on the front!! In fact later, when I had opened them and threw the packaging away, he got the pic out of the garbage. ew.


"WAIT is that who I THINK it is??? Wait who's on the wrapping paper, hold on I want to look at the paper for an minute."

"YAY a Lightening McQueen picture! What? .....huh? This is a blanket?"
Andrew:"OHHHH! I get it now."
(see how impressed I am? )

"Hey it's BUZZ! Ummm is there a picture of Lightening anywhere?"
"Ummmm ok yeah, Buzz is cool."
Andrew:" ANOTHER PICTURE OF LIGHTENING MCQUEEN!"
Mom: "Andrew that's a Bedspread from Nana and Papa. We'll put it on your bed!"
Andrew " huh? what's a bedspread?"
(And Jesse decided to really get him going and have Maddi give him the Piece de Resistance.)
Wait for it....Wait for it.....
Andrew "LOOK AT THIS LOOK AT THIS LOOK AT THIS!"
Dad "Andrew, show me so I can take a picture, Andrew!.... ANDREW!!!!"

"And look it has wheels, and it's red, and it talks and it has a 95 on it just like in the movie"
" Ok, I will let you look.....but that's it"
This is picture I got off the Internet since he would never let us take a picture since he was too busy playing with it.
" Andrew, look over here! Cherilyn got you a poster!"
"uh huh" still thinking about his new toy
"WAIT JUST A MINUTE! Is that.....????? Whoo hoo!"
"What do you mean there's a movie?"
"Wait, hmmmm, let me check this out. What? hold it up so I can take a picture? uh huh...uh huh..." still looking
YAY! a BALL!
goes back to his FAVORITE toy!
Mom "Andrew come look over here,
Andrew " NO!"
Mom "Andrew! Hello??? Here look, I'll help you start it."
Andrew " Argh, ok"
It was a Shake and Go Racetrack. He didn't really care.
(that is until we put it together and then he cared, I admit it, I play with it too. It's fun.)

And I PROMISE I did NOT persuade him. He ASKED for Chocolate. I just happily obliged.


Crap......They caught me.... I was DONE frosting the cake FYI. I just didn't want to waste any frosting left on the knife. AHEM! yes....

Wait! Is that?????
"Yes Andrew, why yes it is!"
Such a fun Birthday, he LOVED IT! Did you notice any particular Theme? Yes, Pixar totally has our number.
