OurThree Little Munchkins: Three Years Old

I can't believe my baby girl is 3! She amazes me everyday with all that she knows and what an amazing little girl she has become. Ella is so kind and considerate towards her brothers, a little mother hen. She is curious about the world, always asking questions and exploring outside. I also love seeing her love of books. She amazes me how long books will keep her interest. She loves to learn! Ella loves to dress up with princess dresses, high heel shoes, crowns and jewelry. Babies are also a favorite! Markers, paint, crayons, play dough....more favorites.

Ella's birthday actually lasted about a week. Birthdays never are just a day in our house. I had conferences the evening of her birthday so we celebrated the night before with cupcakes, dinner and a present (a princess color form book). She loved it! On November 15th, Ella had a surprise visitor come and spend the night and day with her while Mommy and Daddy went to work. Grandma Carolyn and Kylie came! Ella, Max and Kylie played hard all day long! Grandma said they had a great time celebrating. Ella actually thought that Kylie was her birthday present. We continued the celebration into the weekend too. Our little princess had a pink princess party with all of her friends and family. It was so much fun. That morning we decorated the house with pink balloons, pink cupcakes, pink polka dotted cake, tiaras and wands. Ella and her friends make crowns and colored noodle necklaces, played pin the tiara on the princess and collected candy from the princess pinata. All day long, Ella kept saying, " Mommy, Thank you for my birthday." She is so sweet and appreciative. We are so blessed to have such great friends and family to celebrate with.
