This past weekend we were very busy....too many things on our plate.  One of the more fun things we did was Boy 3's birthday party. I know it was a week late (that just makes the birthday seem longer), but you do what you can and not a birthday can pass in our house without a party!  A fun time was had by all, even thought Mommies planning was a little (a LOT)  behind this year.  I did no go overboard at all, like I do on most birthday parties, it kills me that my reputation might be shot as the “overboard birthday party mom”. (The real title goes to my friend Lara, but she is in a way different league than even I.)  

All the children enjoyed decorating their own mini train car. 

And they had fun playing with playdough, building giant choo-choo tracks, popping balloons with their bottoms and hitting a (firetruck - not choo-choo) pinata.

He will never know this party was planned in less than a week....well, that is until he figures out how to read.......

I made it with a cake train cake pan. As I mentioned in the blog, I was not as prepared for this party as I should have been, so no, I did not have the kids put their trains on tracks. Bad Mommy. Jana, you can have another, but as for me, I am done. Hubby would like to have another, though, so don't be surprised if.....
