Coleman turns 3!

Coleman just turned 3!!!  This kid is a character.  We love him so much.   He keeps things fun. We went to a trampoline park for his birthday party.  He had a blast.  For the past month or so we've been asking him about his birthday plans.  He apparently was really excited about his cake.  Any question regarding his birthday, was answered with one word, "cake".  What do you want for your birthday--cake.  What kind of cake?  "Cake".  What do you want to eat for your birthday?  "Cake"   What kind of presents do you want?  "Cake".  He would occassionaly say that he wanted a "Dickey Douse" cake or a "chockic cake".  So, that's what he got--or at least that's what I attempted to give him.  Apparently I have NO cake making skills.  He was really happy when he saw his cake though so that's all that matters to me.  Here are a few things about Coleman that I want to remember:
-He loves to play rough and wrestle.
-He has no concept of personal space.
-He is finally over the stage of flooding the kitchen with the hose on the kitchen faucet (we hope anyways).
-He has stopped finger painting with his own poop (thank goodness).
-He says that "Nanner" (Tanner) is his best friend.
-He likes to play "Gastics" (gymnastics) with Tanner.
-He loves to be outside. 
-He loves french fries and pizza.  He also seems to like spaghetti and lasagna. 
-He is good at counting and can count to 12.
-He knows a lot of his letter sounds (thank you 'Letter Factory' dvd)
-He loves balls and has a pretty good arm and aim.
-He loves riding Carter's old batmobile (Batman big wheels).
-He gives the best hugs and kisses ever.
-His "I-Wuv-You"s are the sweetest ever.
-He likes to have me lay by him in bed sometimes and he was me real close so he can snuggle and put his arm around me. 
 -He refuses to call Brynlee by name.  She is called "Baby Tister".  I don't know why, but he won't say her name.  He calls Tanner="Nanner", Carter="Carer", and Braeden="Den".  He calls me "Mom" and Jeff is "Dad".  I kinda wish he would call me "mommy" or "mama", but he prefers to call me plain old "Mom".
-He says "G-ya" and "sure" a lot.
-He loves to play the IPad ("Ppad"--not sure why he calls it a "Ppad" since he can pronounce his "I" sound just fine).
-His favorite shows are Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Jake and the Neverland Pirates, Team Umizoomi, and Bubble Guppies.
-He loves to go places and get out of the house. 

Brynlee is almost 7 months old now!  Time flies.  I can't believe how big she is getting.  I wish she'd stop growing up.  She is a pure delight.  Here are a few things I want to remember:
-She just got her first teeth a few weeks ago. 
-She hates baby food and bottles. 
-She still doesn't sleep through the night, but she sleeps much better than she used to so we are happy for any improvement. 
-She is so smiley and giggley. 
-When she is tired, she is tired and is not patient at all. 
-I am so happy that she will wear headbands with no problem.  I was so worried that she'd pull them off or not like wearing them.  I'm sure they'll come a point where she won't put up with them, but for now she likes them and so do I! 
-She sits up well. 
-She loves baths.
-She is a thumb sucker.
-Carter tells her that she's cute or adoreable at least a hundred times a day.  He appropriately nicknamed her "Miss Cutie Pants".
-Apparently she makes a lot of people baby hungry!!!
