First things first...a birthday call from Honey and Papa who stayed up late to catch us fresh out of bed (obviously) and before school!
Birthday breakfast of choice...pancakes!
Birthday Hugs! Brooks was Barrett's biggest fan all day.
Look who's THREE!
On our way to school.
I arrived a little early to share birthday treats with B's class so instead of staying for lunch, we had a quick birthday lunch date at McDonalds and then went back to school to celebrate with Barrett's class.
Birthday decor courtesy of Barrett's teachers.
"3" cookies we took to share
Birthday boy with his class.
We didn't have an official birthday party for Barrett. A few days before the 2nd we asked Barrett's favorite little friends in Doha (and their families) to join us for his birthday dinner. Where?? FUDDRUCKERS of course!
There are a few American restaurants in Doha that have big indoor playrooms like this. Its strange but AWESOME! Perfect for our little ones.

Amy and Jackie
Mark and Bruce with their boys
Cake time
Simply can't believe it.
Very serious while listening to everyone singing
Presents
Barrett is so enthusiastic about a lot of things...especially presents. With every present he responded with such emotion and excitement..."wow, cool, great, etc"
Family present time
What a special day with the baby boy in our house. He enjoyed it so much and loved celebrating. He's such a little squirt with so much personality. Its always amazing to me how God made our boys in such creative ways. Brooks and Barrett are so different and no matter the birthday or activity, they are all so unique and personal simply because they are each so special. This birthday was fun for us to watch because Barrett completely understood everything and was full of joy, plus Brooks was so encouraging and supportive. You never know and I was a wondering how it would be for Barrett to get all the attention.
Big hugs from the birthday boy for Georgia. Our babies are growing!! Bear turned 3 and Georgia got a growing report at our doctor's appointment. They estimate her current weight around 4.8 lbs (little bigger than average at this point). My doctor is planning to induce on April 15th, which happens to be Honey's birthday. How bout that? That's about 10 days early. Both boys arrived 2 weeks (or more) before their due dates so we're planning on the same based on size and progress. I'm interested in induction because of past experiences and simply for planning purposes. Yeah right!! I'd LOVE for my mom to be here and it would be great to make plans for the boys ahead of time. BUT...the boys didn't come on "our" agenda what-s0-ever, which has reminded me to pray often, keep an open mind and be flexible. I have a feeling Georgia might come early on her own but that's for the Lord to decide.
