John had to work on Rudy's actual birthday, so we pretended his birthday was the day before. LeeAnn was nice enough to watch Avery and Ben so we could take Rudy out for a special morning, just the three of us.
We took Rudy to his first in-theater movie, Planes: Fire and Rescue.
Rudy had no idea what he was in for. We explained the show would be as big as a wall and he was pretty hyped up… but the candy (and being allowed to get some!), big popcorn, and soda were by far the highlight!

It was so nice to have some time with just the three of us, but we missed Avery and Ben. Even Rudy said, "Avery and Ben go wif us??"
We only lasted about 1 hour - which was only about 30 minutes of actual movie. Rudy asked to go and we weren't going to force it. He wasn't crazy about the movie and one hour is a long time for a just-turned (kind of) 3 year old to sit through!
Afterwards we headed to the toy store. He got a duplicate at his party, so he was able to pick out a new one. Then back home to tell Avery and Ben all about it!
That evening he opened his presents from us - a new book bag for preschool just around the corner and soccer goals for practicing at home
Avery opened a little something, too. She was so happy to have her own toy :)
And no birthday celebration is complete without cake…so more cake! This time we served up Rudy's requested blue cake… anything for my Ru.
Messy eaters!
Hope you didn't think we were done partying?? ...
