Outside playtime!!

Another beautiful day and what better way to spend it then outside!! Mommy had kites at my birthday party yesterday and some of my friends got to fly them, but I ran out of time. I really wanted to fly one, and since it's my birth week - I get what I want! (Right, daddy?!)

While I was flying my kite with Daddy, Evan was swinging with mommy.

Then I took a spin in my new car!!

And last, but not least.... A wagon ride with my brother! I did such a great job holding him and keeping him safe. It was a lot of fun!

I'm not really sure what's so funny here - isn't Evan supposed to wear lipstick and get his hair curled???

Birthday Party - Presents!!

And for the grand finale to my party - presents!!! All my friends brought my such fun things!!

Birthday Party - Pinata Time!

Mommy and daddy got me a pinata for my party. I did not want to hit it with the bat, so I let my friends do it...

Bella was the one who got it to bust!

Birthday Party - Play time!!!

Once all my friends arrived (Eli, Jake, Noah, Mia, Makenna, Carly, Nate, Bella, Lachlan, Annabeth, Zane, Lincoln, Fletcher and DJ), we decided to play. There was jumping in my bounce house:

Sitting around, talking and relaxing...

Playing on the playground - I, driving the ship!

 Hoola hooping!

My 3rd Birthday PARTY!!!

Today is my 3rd BIRTHDAY PARTY!!! And I am sooooo excited!!! I wanted all princess themed party. We had it at the park again and it was a beautiful day!! Daddy made me an awesome Ariel cake - here I am seeing it for the first time:

I tried to blow the candles out...

But ended up needing some help. Daddy helped me do it and then I literally dove into the cake - smashing my face into it. :) After cake, I had to have a cupcake:

My shoes...

So mommy has always said that I am ALL girl.... That I have to pick out my clothes - usually a pretty dress... And I have to pick out my shoes, and love have a big selection to choose from. A girl can never have too many shoes, right? (Mommy is still trying to figure out where I get this from...) :) So, today I wanted to pick out my shoes before daycare, but we didn't have time. When daddy starting rushing me, I started to throw a fit. Daddy wasn't going to put up with that, so he put a pair of shoes on me and mommy took me to daycare. At end of day, mommy picked me up and when we got home, I went straight to my room, changed my shoes and brought mommy the shoes I had worn all day and said "I don't want these shoes!"

Oh, boy....

Carly's birthday party

Today was Carly's 4th birthday party. We had so much fun. Here we are with Ms. Erin's boys, Lane and Tate, in addition to Nate, Carly, Evan and I.

Tattoo's!!!

Everytime I got potty, I get a tattoo....See how well I have been doing?? :)

Listening....

Today I wasn't listening, so daddy said "Repeat after me. I." And I said, "daddy." For some reason, mommy and daddy thought that was hilarious!

Holding my baby

Tonight I was playing with my baby and had to sit in Evan's Bumbo...

Panties!!

So, mommy has been trying to get me to use the potty and I would every now and then, but not all the time. I still wore diapers because I really showed no interest in the potty. Mommy has two potty's my size in the living room and bathroom (Cars and Dora), pretty panties and pull ups and M&M's or tattoo's as a reward if I go....but, I still wasn't really interested. She decided to try the method of "I'll tell her when I'm ready" approach. As my third birthday approached, she was about to give up on her method, when I woke up this morning and asked to wear panties. She wasn't sure how it would go....but, I went all day with NO ACCIDENTS!!!! YYYEEEAAA!!! I think I'm ready to be potty trained!!! And, perhaps I've just done it all by myself...

Playing with Evan

I decided to bring Evan toys to play with tonight - with my mouth.... Why not, that's where he puts them???



SNOW!!!

This year has been very warm and we haven't gotten any snow! :( Until today....it started to snow, but didn't stick. Here I am watching it snow with my baby. It never did stick, so I didn't get to go outside and play in it...

Princess Kayla

Have I told you lately I still love to play dress up?? Here's one of my dresses from Christmas. It's hard to tell, but this pretty dress has a hoop in the skirt. I love it - and it's so cute. It's really hilarious when I sit down...or try to...

Evan's Paci

This morning, Evan had his paci in. I walked up to him and said "You want your paci? You don't have a paci party then. You won't get your paci back." :)

Just looking out for my little bro!

Tent playtime!

I played in my tent today and had Evan come too! We had a blast!

Mommy even joined us!

Paci Party

So mommy has been asking me for months if I want to have a paci party and throw away my paci's. Pretty much everytime I have a melt down, but this week I was excited and said YES! So, mommy said we'd do it Sunday and it's here! Mommy baked me a cake and wrapped some presents. We even danced!!! I had so much fun!! (Now, will I be OK without my paci's???)

Evan even cheered me on!!

Kisses

Meermaw came to visit today, so Evan and I decided to show her how much we love each other!
