Titus Turns 3! - Part 1

We held Titus' 3rd birthday party at my friend Robin's house this year. It was a Jungle theme. I made games for the kids to play, such as jumping on stones to avoid snakes, toss the bean bag in the lion's mouth, I Spy Jungle Animals with binoculars made from toilet tissue rolls, coloring pages, and stepping on lion and monkey paw prints. We had food such as Snake Eggs (green grapes), Dried Ants (raisins), chips (beetle wings), bananas for monkey, peanuts for elephant, etc. We also served Jungle Juice (Citrus drink with sherbert). Here are pictures:

Opening Presents and the rest of the party on a different blog post to come. I wasn't going to sort through all the present opening pictures, but then started to load them and realized there are 43 pictures. You probably don't want to see 43 pictures, so another blog post soon to come.

Diego and Thomas the Train

Titus has been in love with Dora and Diego what seems like forever. We can't hardly get him to watch anything else. Our friends, Ron and Chong, got Titus Thomas the Train Mega Bloks. He loves playing with Thomas the Train things and loves the idea of Thomas (calling him Komas), but hasn't really grasped the show. I'm hoping for some change, but we shall see. He also has 1 of the 2 Diego shirts on that Ron and Chong bought him. I actually took these pictures for them, but thought I would share, because I think he is so cute playing. He has gotten to a point lately where he plays on his own better, and this has been one happy mom. I love playing with him, but sometimes I do have to get things done.
