My babies turned 3 on Februrary 22nd!! When people ask me, "Can you believe they are 3 already?" I answer, "Yes! I can believe it!" haha I feel like I've been saying they are 2 years old for so long now. Or maybe it was a looooong year :) In any case, they are getting so big and I am enjoying every moment with them because I know time is going to go by so fast. They are getting bigger and changing and learning and growing. They are my only two so every new discovery and milestone is the first and last we get to experience. They are quite opinionated now ("I want cereal for breakfast! No, I don't want cereal, I want oatmeal!") and we are working on asking for things nicely :) Audrey will only wear 2 different party dresses when we leave the house and she only wears princess/ballernia dresses at home. Nathan also picks out his clothes every morning with a handful of favorite T-shirts (dragon, police car, pirate and cars). They like to tell us that they don't want to take a nap, or get in the carseat, or put on their shoes, or take a bath or put their pjs on, etc. etc. Life is certainly tiring with two toddlers. Audrey & Nathan have some great conversations with each other and we often hear them laughing together while playing in their bedrooms. It's been fun to see their imaginations develop. Audrey is in love with all things princesses (especially Disney princesses) and Nathan plays right along with her - tiara, heels and all! He is really into his cars, trucks and trains. Things that move, basically. He loves being read to and jumping on and running with Todd! They both love being outdoors and riding their bikes. Happy 3rd birthday to my precious little lovebugs :)
Grandma & Grandpa Trayer sent packages for the kids a few days before their birthday and they literally couldn't wait to open them. We couldn't even get the box inside the house! They sent beautiful pop up books for the kids and adorable outfits. Thank you!!!
Grandma Davis came over to help bake the castle cookies for the kids' birthday party. Audrey is helping roll the dough.
The morning of their birthday, they opened up a gift from Mom & Dad! They were really into opening gifts this year!! Nathan got a police car.
Audrey was very excited to get a Tinkerbell doll.
"Here Ye, Here Ye! The Royal Court is Turning 3!"
The kids celebrated their birthday with good friend, Jaeden, who turned 3 on Feb. 20th. We had a Royal Birthday party for them at Roundtable Pizza. Guests came dressed in their royal garb.
It was a great party with lots of yummy food, activities for the kids, a play area and many good friends! I wish I would have taken more pictures of all of our wonderful guests. It was such a busy 2 hours I barely had time to sit down and eat lunch! Thank you to everyone who came to help us celebrate Audrey, Nathan and Jaeden's 3rd birthday - what a great day!!!!
