*Thank you to Babies “R” Us, Proctor & Gamble, and Pampers for sponsoring today’s discussion. All thoughts are my own.
It won’t be long and my little guy will be three years old. THREE! How did this happen? It seems like just yesterday that he was turning one. We had a fun “ball” themed party in primary colors. We kept it small with just family to not overwhelm him. He wasn’t sure what to make of all, but was really happy all day.
Originally I had planned to make him a 3D ball shaped cake, but that didn’t work out as planned. Instead, I went for a dome shape and decorated them with bright M&M candies. It worked out well and was definitely easier to transport than the 3D cake would have been. I also made him cake ball cupcakes. Overall the homemade desserts ended up being a lot of work, but made me feel good to make them special for his big day.
Wesley kept going after the candy on the side of the cake, so we had to hurry a bit.
I think he liked his chocolate cake, don’t you? The pure joy on his face says it all!

My little guy waving now!
My favorite milestone is when my babies first start crawling. 🙂
Potty Training has been the best for my twins!
His first smile 🙂
My favorite milestone for my daughter was when she started walking.
My 18 month old is is dancing, and I LOVE seeing babies dance!
I loved their first smile!
She is almost 6 months old and just started saying dada! Lol hopefully mama will be next but it is so cute!
The milestone that stands out the most is when my son said “mama” the first time.
Walking.
I look forward to the first smile and first laugh.
He already is recognizing family and smiles hugely when he sees great-grandma – he’s 4 months old and already trying to pull himself up.
Talking milestones have definitely been my favorite as she expresses herself!
I’m really looking forward to my little ones first word(s)
I’m looking forward to the first recognition of music and singing.
I look forward to the first real smile, it melts my heart every time.
the first smile and first word
Can’t wait for E’s 1st word
My favorite was first words and first steps!
I loved those first little steps so precious they come so quick though.
