Happy Birthday Luis!

You turned 3 today!

We can't believe how fast you are growing up!

You love to play (pick on) your sister Luhani, although she's getting much bigger too and is able to fight back now, so it's getting a little harder.

Your favorite characters are Elmo, Spongebob and Spiderman and whenever you get frustrated or don't like what someone's doing to you, you hold out your hand and make a "schoo" sound pretending that you're throwing your spiderman web. It's so funny!

You love being a big boy and wearing your big boy underwear instead of diapers and I have to say that you were very easy to potty train and caught on really fast!

You love it when Dad's home, dad's your buddy and you love to roughhouse with him and try to do whatever he does.

You also love it when Jaidyn's home, your her little shadow, most of the time she gets irritated by you always being there right by her side but when you're getting along you play so cute together.

You say the funniest things, a new word you've been saying this week is "wait", with a complete attitude, if I asked you to do something you'll say "wait mom" in a tone like I'm really busy, hold on and I'll be right with you.

I love it when you dance, you get this funny little pinched up face and flex your muscles and dance around like the cool dude that you are (you are definitely all boy).

There is no doubt that you're going to be an excellent athlete, you have a great throwing arm and for being such a little guy you can out run most big kids. You also have been teaching Oni to do sommersaults, and you love doing yours with no hands just to make it that much more exciting!

You love to help, no matter what mom and dad are doing you are anxious to help out, whether it's building, cleaning, cooking or working in the yard, you love to be right in the middle and doing your part to help out.

You love it when mom cuts your hair and when mom's finished you always say Thank you and give me a big smile!

You love your little sisters, you take such good care of them, if either one is crying you are the first to run to them and give them a bottle, drink of water or anything else you might have to soothe them. When Luhani falls down or gets hurt you run to her, hug her and then start playing ring around the rosies to get her mind off of it. What a good big brother you are!

You love the water, it doesn't matter if it's a small puddle to jump and get muddy in or a huge pool, you love getting wet and playing in any kind of water!

I love it when you run to me, grab my leg and say "my mommy", then you give me a big smile and a hug and kiss, what a love bug you are!

Some of your favorites:

Spiderman, Sponge Bob and Elmo

Pizza (from Whole Foods)

Hot Dogs (from Costco)

Cheetos

Grapes

Your Elmo Night time book is your favorite book

Your such a good boy and so fun to be around, there's no doubt that you love to make other people happy and laugh, your a little comedian, but you keep things fun and interesting. You're all boy and love to climb and get in to trouble, but love and kind at the same time. We love you Luis! Happy 3rd Birthday little buddy!
