3 years???









i really can't believe that it was 3 years ago now, that i was at the hospital delivering sweet baby girl #2! ellison looks much older than a 1 yr old, but when i think of having her, it seems like it was just last year. man, time is going by way too fast!!

ellison had a fun happy birthday day. we made cupcakes last night & she took them to school to have a little party at snack time. that's where she made her special birthday crown! it's been a good birthday month for her...she got her awesome high heels from gangee & peepaw when we were in orlando, her dollhouse from nana & papa when we were in melbourne, and then today she got to open 2 gifts from us (cinderella barbie & little mermaid book), and then tomorrow night is her birthday party with 8 friends!

ellison is so funny these days. she is quite the drama queen. she is very passionate about everything: pink, princess, girly, etc.
she LOVES: wearing makeup, carrying purses (min 2 at a time), wearing high heels, reading books, cheese sticks, macaroni & cheese, peanut butter crackers and chicken. her favorite princess' at the moment are little mermaid & cinderella. my favorite thing she's started doing lately is singing during church. she doesn't know the words, but sings LOUD & with great gusto! she is my sticker girl. i find stickers EVERYWHERE. i used to clean them up, but now it makes me laugh to find random stickers on the fireplace, in the shower, on a cabinet door. she still pitches major fits. i somehow thought that since she's turning 3, we would be saying goodbye to these terrible 2 meltdowns, but that is not the case. part of it could be she's outgrown her naps. man, do i hate that!!! but at least kennedy has a partner in crime now during "nap time." oh, she LOVES dance class. when you ask her what her favorite thing was at dance class, she says butterflies & moves her arms like she's a butterfly. she is very graceful and when dancing, in her own little world! anyways, we love this passionate & lively kid! am so glad that God gave us such a sweet blessing. can't wait to share many birthdays with this awesome kid!!

Happy Birthday Ellison! I looks like she had a very fun birthday. Oh - and we haven't outgrown the terrible 2 meltdowns. In fact, I think they've gotten worse.
