Trevor is Three!

 

Oh Trevor- full of personality and mischief. So independent and self-willed. This kid keeps us on our toes, can be completely exasperating, but is a sweetheart that makes everyone happy. Trevor has been insisting most of the day that he's either 9 or 93, but occasionally has admitted to being three. We started out the day with allergen-safe chocolate waffles with raspberries. )He was lucky enough to have his Grandpa here for the morning of his birthday) We then opened up Trevor's presents and he spent the time before lunch playing with them. After lunch he went down for his usual nap without too much fuss. In the afternoon, he hung out with his brothers and dad (who was home for the day supposed to be studying for an upcoming test) while I took Heidi to ballet, then we had a quick dinner and ate cake before Austin and the older boys left for their church activities.  Here are some photos from his special day plus his first birthday interview.
