Yes, he’s 3! Although, when I kept saying to him before his birthday, “You are going to be 3!” He said that he did not want to be 3, and when I asked why, he said, “I don’t want to be a number.”
My sentiments exactly as I approach a milestone birthday…
Nevertheless, he came around and graciously accepted his party and numerous gifts! 😀
We were fortunate enough to be able to celebrate with Clay, Heidi, Kirsten and Kendall (more on their visit coming soon). Since we celebrated early, the birthday celebrations extended on for days, and now, he is still asking for presents.
For months, Greyson had been telling me that he wanted a “Hulk party”. I guess he’s been watching too many superhero videos on YouTube lately… With a rainy morning and not much on the agenda, the kids were in charge of decorating for Greyson’s birthday. They spent a lot of time making cards and banners. This kept the kids busy, and it actually looked like I had planned a party! Ha!
Then, when I asked Greyson what he wanted to eat at his party (the morning of…), he told me “Hulk pizza”. 😳 So, thanks to Pinterest, we got ideas, and I was off to the store to buy more types of cheese and toppings than I thought possible… the neighbors kids came over, and they each selected a superhero to make for their pizza.
We finally unveiled the Hulk cake, and he was so happy! He said, “It is SO awesome. He is SO angry!”
The Hulk costume was also a big hit. In fact, he had to sleep in it, and then my Easter morning pictures include the Hulk hunting eggs.
The celebration continued on his actual birthday, the 19th. We saved presents from the grandparents to open then. More superhero stuff!
Safe to say when you sleep with your gifts, it’s been a good day… Happy birthday, buddy!

What a fun idea for a party, super hero pizzas. All did a fantastic job on decorating their pizzas. Greyson looks like he had a wonderful party. I’m sure visiting cousins made it extra special.
