Happy 3rd Birthday Simon

Today is Simon’s 3rd Birthday. I’m super proud to be this guys mama, despite the fact that he woke up at 5 am today. He’s a stubborn and strong willed little guy. He’s stingy with his smiles so if you receive a smile from Simon, consider yourself lucky. But it you find favor in the eyes of Simon you will be forever his favorite. He is a quality time guy. He wants your full attention when he’s chosen to engage with you. This may be because of his birth order, third child and all.

He’s hilarious but either it’s unintentional or he just really that cool. He’s not one to perform for anyone else, he only does things for himself. However, he is very loving towards his brothers, most of the time. He says Noah is his best friend and misses him dearly every day when Noah goes to school. Also, he will always bring little toys to Abel, especially if he’s crying.

He loves Pizza, Macaroni & Cheese, Toast with Jam, Burritos, Guacamole, Pancakes, Ice Cream and Bananas. He’s my most picky eater. He doesn’t eat a lot of meat.

He loves Mickey Mouse, Paw Patrol, Ninja Turtles, Rescue Bots, and pretend cooking. He also loves to swing at the park.

His personality is pretty quiet and inquisitive. You can tell he’s always observing and analyzing his surroundings. Even though he’s quiet it doesn’t mean he doesn’t talk much. He has a very robust vocabulary for a new 3 year old. I’m often surprised by his proper use of more advanced words and phrases.

He’s such a sweet boy and I’m so very excited to watch him grow into an amazing man.

Happy Birthday Simon!
