Second Birthday:
Third Birthday:
Alice at age 3 in a nutshell:
She's a total girly-girl who only wears dresses and almost always a "tutu dress". Thankfully this girlyness has yet to include being very emotional, moody or sensitive.
She also loves all things transportation, airplanes, boats, buses and trains especially.
She sleeps great, goes to bed at 7:30 and we wake her up at 7. She naps at 1:30 and I wake her up at 4.
It's still a struggle to get her to eat at mealtime.
She has a lot of energy, especially in the evening she can get really crazy.
She'll be a little shy in a new situation or place where she doesn't know anyone.
But at home or someplace with a friend she is super outgoing.
Favorite books: Beatrix Potter books, Pete the Cat books, Locomotive, Dr. Seuss books and the Jesus Storybook Bible.
Favorite shows/movies: Peg + Cat, My Neighbor Totoro, Song of the Sea, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty and Winnie the Pooh.
She loves Jane and is a great big sister, most of the time.
She loves going to church and cries every Sunday when we leave.
We love her to pieces and are so blessed to be her parents.
So on her birthday we started off with a mickey pancake and candles:
Then we headed to the zoo, which is an occasion which obviously warrants a tutu dress, birthday girl crown and a "boppity-boo" (magic wand).
We ended the day with a cupcake with trick candles on it, her reaction was hilarious.
I wanted to take some pictures of Alice for her birthday which is easier said than done.
Alice is not good at getting her picture taken, it's so hard to get her to look at the camera and even harder to get her to do it while smiling.
Thankfully I learned a good trick from my sister-in-law (and mother of 4)....bribery.
In this case, jelly beans did the trick.
Wish I was a photoshop pro and could add fairy wings to this picture!
