When did this happen?? How can I have a 3 year old...I only had him 5 minutes ago! He has passed the INCREDIBLY, UNSPEAKABLY terrible twos...and now he's into the "improving slightly" threes. Graeme, in personality, takes much more after me than he does his dad. He's very outgoing, rather bad-tempered, hilarious, and he swears like a sailor. Well, not quite, but he does come out with some pretty good ones. He often calls his brother a "c-word"...which means crap, not the OTHER c-word, chill out. He has also invented his own personal swear: he likes to call Brian a big "graybee"...whatever that is. But it's a bad one.
When Graeme is charming, he is adorable. He's irresistible! And because of the charm, he gets away with the other stuff. When Graeme is happy, everybody is happy. And if Graeme loves you, he loves the c-word out of you! I really like this kid...I think he's going to be good people.
Yesterday we had the family over for cake. Cathie and I combined our efforts and made a Mike Wazowski cake, and man did it turn out GREAT! Totally worth the effort when I saw the smile on Graeme's face! He was over the moon about it, and his first comment was "I'm gonna EAT him!" Which we did! He was yummy!
Happy Birthday, my baby clam!
