Happy 3rd Birthday Addie!

On May 15th, Addie turned 3!
A few days before her birthday I had found a birthday questionaire on Pinterest and asked her all of the following questions. She pretty much had a quick response for each question and kept wanting me to ask her more questions when I was done with this list :) My favorite one is her answer to what she wants to be when she grows up..."a big girl!" :)

Addie's morning started with a surprise waiting for her outside her bedroom door. I've had something like this pinned on Pinterest for a few years now and felt this year she would actually enjoy it :) She came downstairs and said to me "what is that Mommy?" I told her it was her birthday surprise! It's a few days after her birthday now and the streamers are still hanging :)


I love this comparison picture. You can see how much she has grown! At 2 years she was 21.6lbs and 32 inches. At 3 she is 26.6lbs and 35.25 inches. Her pediatrician says she is growing perfectly and has bumped up to the 10% for weight and is in the 10% for height.

I had nothing planned in the morning so I asked her what she wanted to do. She wanted to go to the little cart store (Kroger) and bake cupcakes. She does so well pushing her own little grocery cart around.

She helped with every step...

and loved blowing candles out so much that we did it two times that day (and more to come at her bday party!).

That morning Daddy was in court for work and came home with a Hello Kitty Edible Arrangement that Grandma Holman had ordered for her. She loves fruit!

Later that afternoon we took her to Chuck E Cheese. She had so much fun :)

That night Addie got to stay up just a little later than usual. Right when I was about to take her upstairs to go to bed the tornado sirens went off! We got everything ready to go sit in the bathroom and got Bryce out of bed, but luckily the storm did not pass over our area like we thought it was going to.

Addie had a great birthday and is looking forward to her party in just over a week!

Bryce's 1st Haircut

Addie & I took Bryce to get his first haircut this afternoon. He did really well! He only got a little squirmy towards the end. Now I think he looks even more like his Daddy :)
