Brennan with cake and presents and OH JOY I'm 3!!! 112704 (3)

So the Caped Wonder turned 3...if you notice, he has his two favorite things on...the red hockey sweatshirt that is usually worn for enough consecutive days that he has virtually an entire meal's worth of scraps crusted to the front. And let us NOT forget the Superman cape, buttoned just around the neck. He probably had his Spiderman boots on, too, and they were most likely on the wrong feet. Bren is like a cartoon -- that kid just CRACKS US UP. And here he was, spitting all over his 3rd birthday cake, a TRAIN cake, because he loves trains. We took him to the theatre to catch "The Polar Express" -- unfortunately, he made it only as far as the theatre darkening before he decided he'd rather be at home with Daddy and Kendon. Bummer for him, GREAT for me...I told Yaunna and her girlfriends to not talk to me during the length of the movie, and I sat watching, fixated and amazed at the digital mastery of the adapted Chris Van Allsburg book...it was bliss. No one attached to my boob, no diapers to change, no dog to scold, no words to transcribe, no emails to answer, no fax to unjam, no phone to curse at. Awesome.
