Sawyer Turns THREE!!! April 2

I can't even believe Sawyer is now a 3 year old!  Where does the time go?  So very quickly these boys are growing up and sometimes I feel like just setting up a camera so I don't miss anything when I blink!  Mr. Bear loves Baymax.  So, with the help of dear Nicole, I was able to get my hands on the bouquet of balloons, make them into Baymax heads and stash them in his room along with his shirt I made him so he could wake up to a birthday surprise!  He was tickled.  After picking up Daddy from the airport, we met Nana and Papa at the Keg and had an awesome meal and some presents.  Very minimal as the boys are sharing a big birthday bash again this year at the end of May!  Just enough to let him know how very special he, and the day he came into this world, are!

 *Spoiler Alert if you haven't seen the movie*

Big Hero 6 was playing on the airplane on the way home.  Although Sawyer has seen it countless times, when it comes to the end and it's time for Hiro and Baymax to part ways and Baymax 'dies' - Sawyer was a blubbering mess.  Tears, red, quietly crying and mourning his dear friend.  Heartbreaking.

Sawyer is such a sweet and special little boy.  He is starting to become quite sensitive and thoughtful like his older brother, which is new for him - and greatly embraced as his kisses and kind words are so meltworthy.  He is sweet and kind.  His feelings are hurt easily.  He can be impatient and easily frustrated or disappointed (like someone else I know - this girl) but it comes from a place of wanting things to go right.  To be successful.  His sense of humor has really started to shine lately and it's so funny to see him blossom.  He likes to tease, to laugh, to be playful and engaging.  This is new for him as he spent the better part of his first year and a half being a wallflower.  Quiet.  Laid back.  Now he has an opinion.  He has his own way.  He adores and idolizes his big brother.  He is thrilled to be a big brother in training himself and I think it will be really fun to see him transition into this new role.  He always has to have a toy in his hand.  No toy specifically, he goes through stages of being attached to different small toys, but they come everywhere with him.  Comfort.  It's funny to look back at pictures and see that this started long ago and yet we are only really starting to catch on to it!  He is amazing and makes us smile every day.  He is handsome and sweet.  We are all better because of him and he is a great fit for our family.  

Happy Birthday Sawyer!
We love you to the moon, around the universe, across Canada and back to your heart!
