Oh, to be 3 again...

Oh, to be 3 again...Wouldn't it be nice to have your only worry to be what toy you were going to play with next and be told that you MUST take a nap every day after lunch?! Not that I can remember being three, but I am sure it wasn't all that rough.
{If you noticed that part of the 3 was missing it is because Diego fell over and part of the 3 got stuck to his back pack and this was the lone cake only pic I took}
One of the main reasons that I keep this blog up (other than REALLY enjoying doing it) is that I hope that some day my children will be able to relive some of the everyday events that they have experienced by looking back at the pictures and reading what I wrote.
Like the special moment of blowing out the candles on your 3rd Birthday cake.
Or licking the frosting off of the figurines and candles after making your wish.
Little missy moo-moo got busted sticking her finger in the frosting here but I just couldn't be mad at her.
Could you stay mad at this face?
Wait! Or this one...
Better yet, this one?!
Me either!
Audrey sure was excited to see what was in the big box. Mostly because she peeked in the gift bags that Grandma and Grandpa brought so she already knew what was in them! Grant was also more than eager to 'help' her open her presents.
Cousins Emily and Evan were also there helping my little Hunna celebrate her birthday. She sure loved having them there for her big party.
Once the wrapping paper was all off of the big box and she could see the picture on the box, she was all smiles.
She has always wanted and finally gotten her very own kitchen!
That little stinker even stayed up until 11 o'clock waiting for Daddy and his friend Pete to finish putting this little kitchen together. Isn't it the cutest thing? I almost wish it was mine ;)
The minute they were finished, she moved her pots and pans right on in!
This morning, the first thing she did was 'make' me some corned beef, a slice of cheese and a glass of milk. Nothing like a little protein to start off the day! I have a feeling that she is going to have lots of fun with it and I will be served many-a interesting meals in the very near future.

My Baby is turning 3!!!

I am having a hard time accepting the fact that this little one...
...has turned into this little one...
She's not so little anymore, now is she! Well...she is petite and most people mistake her for turning 2 instead of 3, but she is undoubtedly growing up right before my eyes. {sniff, sniff}
Her personality is blossoming...
Her hair is {finally} growing...She is the light of my life and I couldn't be more proud to call her my daughter.
Happy 3rd Birthday to my sweet little Tootie Mae Mae!!!! I love you!!!

i heart faces - 'Pink Week'

This week’s theme over at iheartfaces is in celebration of Breast Cancer Awareness month. Yes, it is PINK week!!!Thankfully, I do not have a profound and moving story to tell you about this picture. It is just one of those lucky pictures from a photo shoot I took this past summer and I happened to capture such a seemingly sweet moment. With a little editing I was able to give this candid shot a whole new meaning. As a mother, I can not imagine having to leave my children behind or to have to see them suffer from cancer one day. I have a deep hatred for the 'c' word because of all of the pain and suffering it has caused so many families. So thank you iheartfaces for choosing to honor those who have been effected by breast cancer (heck ANY cancer). They are all true HEROS!
Make sure to head on over to www.iheartfaces.com to check our all of the other PINK entries and to spread the word and love to all of those taking the time to share their pictures and stories.
