I asked Addie on her birthday what she wanted to do-I had kept the day wide open so that she could choose how we spent our time. She said she wanted to go to a park with swings (something that there are not a lot of around here, unfortunately-lots with slides, but not many with swings), so off we went.
Levi is at a stage where he wants EVERYTHING his sister has (or does) so he decided to get on the big boy swing next to Addie
Our 3 year old. Another little girl at the playground struck up a conversation with Addie and asked her how old she was. Addie said, "I'm 3." She realized that as of that day her age had changed!
We met Daddy at Chick-fil-a for lunch. Can't go wrong with that!
After a dinner of pork tenderloin and macaroni (some of Addie's favorite's), we had princess cupcakes for dessert!
There was a special Ariel ring on the top of the cupcake.
Lots of presents!
She got a baby alive doll from Uncle Josh and Aunt Amy-a huge hit! (thanks, guys)
And...her first "real" bike-a Dora bike!
Although it was hard to pull Addie away from her baby doll to get her to come see what present she had waiting for her in the garage, once she opened it, she hopped right on and was ready to go on a bike ride. She did surprisingly well and we ended up doing 3 consecutive laps around the neighborhood. Way to go, Addie!
Just to get a little more caught up on here, I'm going to update on Addie's 3 year old well check up at the doctor. She weighs 29 lb. 12.8 oz (50%) and is 38.5 in. tall (90%). When the doctor said she was in the 90%, I had her repeat it-I've never had a child over the 50% in anything, so I was quite surprised! Thankfully, she is a very healthy, happy little (but getting bigger) girl. We are so thankful for her and pray her year of being 3 is the best year yet!
