It's hard to believe that our sweet little L is three years old now! The man and I both stayed home from work that day and we took her to the chicken store (chick-fil-a) for lunch and she was in heaven! The real fun began a few weeks prior to the day when She found out she was going to have a birthday. She immediately began to plan her party and her cake. She told me for a party you have to have three things, hats, goodie bags, and cake. She wanted ponies, stars, diamonds, and a dinosaur on her cake - which I was instructed to make pink, green and purple. We did pretty good fulfilling all of her wishes, and only had to leave a few things off! Can you imagine how busy that cake would have been with all that on there?!?! We had family and my best friend and her kids (they are family to us!) over on her actual birthday for chili and snacks before we unwrapped presents and had cake and ice cream. She got a tag jr. reader, a baby doll, stroller, bed, high chair, and lots of my little pony things. She also got her first pet, a fish that she named Dora. She got to have a my little pony pinata and all the kids got buckets to fill with goodies. She also had another party on Saturday with her friends from school! It was total chaos and SO MUCH FUN! We had seven three year olds over and we painted flower pots, had lunch, ate cupcakes, and jumped in the bounce house. On Sunday we took her to see Yo Gabba Gabba Live. It was the most awesome experience to watch her face in sheer amazement as the characters that she watches on TV came to live right before her eyes. She's STILL talking about it - which lets us know it was money well spent! It was so much fun having a few days to love on our girl - they sure do grow up fast!
