Anyone who now has or has had a three year old knows first hand that the "terrible twos" are a picnic compared to three! It's the best and the worst. Suddenly their ears no longer function, yet they say and do the cutest things... they love to make messes - huge, demolition-style messes... they don't like to clean up their own messes, but give them a vacuum and they'll clean, or give them a wooden spoon and they'll help you cook. They are exasperating, exhausting, and yet so much fun. I love my 3-yr-old so much. Sometimes it just takes a bit of make-believe to realize how much they just want to be like us. We headed up to the Children's Museum in Salt Lake with my friend and her 3-yr-old, who happens to be Hayden's FAVORITE girl. Hayden had the best time working construction, cooking in a little kitchen, driving and filling a jeep with gas, delivering mail, shopping, and of course... flying a helicopter. It was so fun to watch them play and realize that they are just trying to learn... even the mess-making is learning to them. So even though 3-yr-olds are kinda hard... it's worth it to hear them laugh, watch them play, and see them learn. The hugs and kisses they give are pretty nice too.

Looks like tons of fun! My girls would absolutely love that museum. Maybe if we come up in the summer I'll have to take them there. Hayden is so dang handsome! Love all the pics!
What adorable pictures!!! Looks like Hayden really had a blast. We went to the Children's Museum in Oct. when we were there and my boys loved it. Play is really where they do learn. Next time when I come we need to get together with the kiddos.
Looks like Hayden had a ton of fun there!
