Happy 3rd Birthday!!!

Today was our 3rd Birthday! We had such a wonderful day spending it with our family!!! Mommy and Daddy are so proud of us and the amazing 3 year olds that we have become! Here we are waiting to leave for our birthday outing....we did not know what special plans mommy and daddy had for us. LEGOLAND.....YEAH!!! We were SO surprised when we pulled up!
Here we are with the Lego man out front:)
We loved seeing all of the sculptures made out of Lego's...although we truly didnt understand how amazing it was that they were made completely out of Legos!
We went on a Dragon ride too!
We even saw a Lego Santa....little did we know that mommy and daddy were going to surprise us and take us to see Santa at Woodfield Mall after Legoland....they had such a fun day planned for us!!!
These were so much fun to build with....huge Lego's!
Colin and Daddy were building with regular size Lego's....we only have Duplo size Lego's at our house so this was something new to play with!
Swinging like monkeys in the play area:)
Mommy and Colin playing with the earthquake tables....when you press the button the table shakes and your Lego creation falls off!
Building a big tower!
Colin was so impressed by this huge race car made of Lego's!
On our way out of LegoLand.....we have to say that for the money we were not overly impressed with the place. The kids had a lot of fun (which is all that matters) but Cam and I thought there would be more things for them to do.
Then we headed across the street to Woodfield Mall to see Santa. Cam and I could not believe our eyes when Kaitlyn and Colin sprinted up to Santa and jumped on his lap!!!! Guess they are big kids now and not afraid:) They talked his ear off and since nobody was behind us in line we hung out with Santa for awhile. He sung them Happy Birthday too which was so cute!
Kaitlyn was talking his ear off...Cam and I were cracking up....it was so funny!
They have a brand new play area in the mall so we visited that as well. We figured, why not cram as much stuff into one day as possible....we were having so much fun:) Kaitlyn was riding the big Tricycle.
They kept saying that the skunk stunk and that they matched him since they had black and white on:)
Oh no....hes eating Colin!!
Kaitlyn loved climbing on Tweedy Bird!
On the way out we stopped in Macy's to write a letter to Santa. They wrote to him that they have been such good kids and told him what they wanted for Christmas.
Sending their letters.......
Off to the North Pole!
We went to Red Robbin for dinner. Here they are being so silly:)
They sang and clapped and brought the kids ice cream sundaes! Yum!

Colin was enjoying his sundae!!
On our way home we made one last stop to Grandma and Papa's new house. Here we are being silly and dancing with our cousin Quintin. Guess those sundaes gave a us a sugar high! We had such a wonderful day and are excited about being 3!!!! We look forward to a wonderful year ahead!
