Rhett is 3


Rhett is 3!!! He is such a big boy!!! Rhett has grown up so much this summer. He is potty trained, sleeps in a bed and rides a big boy bike super fast! He is headed to preschool this fall and is so excited!
Some things to remember about Rhett at this age:

- He talks constantly! (even though most people don't believe me because he is quiet around other people).
- He loves anything with wheels (cars, trucks, trailers, trains, bikes, scooters, skateboards . . you name it).
- He is very athletic and coordinated.
- Loves to go fast and jump off of anything.
- Favorite Color: Green and Blue
- Favorite Food: Raspberries and Donuts
- Matches his clothes to his Dad's every day.
- Word he says all the time: actually
-VERY independent! He started the "i do it" a LONG time ago and has grown increasingly independent. If you help him with something for example opening a door, he will close it and reopen it by himself because he didn't want your help!
-He gets himself completely dressed usually before he even leaves his room in the morning.
-Always shuts his bedroom door behind him. No other door, but always his bedroom door.
-Has a good imagination and loves to pretend.
- He is very particlar about certain things.
-Loves to help with everything. He mows the lawn with Randy, works along side him on his workbench in the garage and cooks, bakes, cleans and does laundry with me.

He is a wonderful little boy! We love him to pieces and are so grateful to have him!

Rhett's Birthday

Rhett had a full day on his birthday. He started the morning with a trip to the donut shop. Then some friends came over to swim and play on the waterslide. That evening we had a family party at the park.

We had a big blow up ball the kids sat inside and rolled around. It was pretty fun!

Surprise trip to Arizona

My mom was headed to AZ for a long weekend to celebrate my niece, Emery's birthday. Rhett and I decided to tag along and not tell anyone we were coming. It was so much fun to surprise my sister and her family. We spent the weekend hanging out, swimming, eating, shopping and of course celebrating Em turning 9!

I didn't take a single picture all weekend . . . shameful! Except the one picture I took on my phone to brag to Randy.

It's a Circle K Root beer Slurpee. A 44oz. for 79cents! Seriously!!! It is the second best thing about going to Arizona, the first being my family of course!

LA Zoo

We love the LA zoo. It is a short drive, it has great exhibits and we generally find the animals out and about for us. Today we even got to see the bear, he is usually hiding.





Checking out the animals with his binoculars.

Look how high he is!!

Fiesta

We went to the Camarillo Fiest and it was CRAZY!!! There were so many people there but we divided up to wait in lines so the kids could go on as many rides as possible. The kids had a great time! Not sure we will be repeating the Fiest next year. :)
