Birthday Boy!

 

 

It is difficult to believe that this little blue surprise is already three years old! The above photos, all captured by his adoring mommy (that would be me) are newborn, 1 year, 2 years and 3 years.

 

 

 

A friend gave him the cute little bomber jacket and the WWII model airplanes belonged to daddy. we bought them at an estate sale while we lived in Colorado Springs, CO. We never had room to display them until recently when they found a home in daddy's office. I bought him the little hat with goggles online. the propeller blades are from an old fan we salvaged from the neighbors trash. I had to scrub a lot and paint a little on it and then we just set him in a cardboard box and snapped away while he played!

 

He had a great time rescuing Kaite's little kitten from the tree in the backyard for this little photo shoot. He maintains a great love for fire trucks and all things red so we planned his party around that.

We had little smokies, in the bush broccoli, flaming jello, matchstick marshmallows, great cheeto balls of fire and licorice fire hoses.

 

 

His cake was simple to the extreme, but it made him happy. That fire truck on it was daddy's when he was a little guy. 

 

We thank God for this little man. he brings so much sunshine to our home.

Just today, he was back at MSTI for a checkup with his oncologist. It's never a fun way to spend half of your day and always a little stressful. Kaderick was amazing though. He hopped right up on the table for exams, chattered away happily to the nurses and doctors and never even shed a tear when he had blood drawn.
