it couldn't be...she is 3?!

3 years ago today....hard to believe.....my little one is 3. Here are a few pictures from her birthday party and her special day.

The day started out with rain. The radar images were not looking good....looked like we were going to have a washout...a repeat of last year. In the end...it ended up being just right...couldn't have asked for a better day.

We had Cinderella come to surprise the kid. She was thrilled. But, she did want to know where "the mouses" were...and why didn't Cinderella have her hair in a pony. (ponytail)

Princess theme. One thing I have learned to bite my tongue over. I swore I wouldn't have a kid who loved this Disney Princess stuff...yeah right. She loves it more than anything...that cake was her dream come true
Cinderella was great. She was a lifesaver with the rain. Kept the kids occupied and under the pavilion when it rained...couldn't have worked out better. The girls were picking out jewelry from her treasure chest.
Time to pick flowers with Cinderella
Emma and her little friends.
I took Emma and 3 of her little friends to have their toes painted today for Emma's birthday. She hasn't ever had her toes painted. So this was a big deal.

The lady told the birthday girl to "pick a color" and she immediately went for the electric blue.

I in turn found a pretty pink color and was able to get her to see the beauty in the pink. Not so sure I was ready to see blue toes on my 3 year old.
The girls after their trip to the salon. We have had a great day so far...dinner with Dad later today.

Happy birthday to my sweet "baby" girl.
