It's hard to believe that my sweet Charlotte is already turning 3! She has grown and changed so much this year. I want to do a post all about her right now-- because even though she is quite a handful of energy, just about everything she does is so cute!
So, we celebrated her birthday with a family party the day before her actual birthday. She is really really into Tangled right now, so that was our theme. I did lunch at the house -- Taco Soup, Cheesy Mexican Soup, chips & queso and then we did gifts and then cake. It worked out so great and all of her grandparents were able to be here to celebrate with her. She was in heaven! After Harrison's family party and then his friend party she knew exactly what was coming. And, she knew this day was all about her! She'd been talking all week about her birthday and was so excited that morning!
The table.
I did purple and white cookies as party favors.
Wearing her Tangled shirt. :)
I think she enjoyed being the center of attention. :)
Of all the gifts that she got that day, I think this wig tops them all. Grandad got it for her and she has worn it almost daily!
After gifts it was time for cake! Yum! And, we can't have a birthday without Braums Ice Cream.
Charlotte was being a ham while eating her cake. I love all her expressions!
This is the face I see daily. It's her mad face. :)
Sunday was her actual birthday. We went to church, home for lunch and Charlotte to nap, then had the first meeting of our new lifegroup at our house! We went out to dinner and had Charlotte's request. She wanted chips and cheesedip and we were happy to take her out for mexican! She's definitely my child with her love for mexican food! Then we came back home and had cupcakes and opened her gifts from us. Harrison & Madeleine couldn't wait to give her their gifts! I love that they get so excited for each other on their birthdays.
Matt & I got her a new tricycle as her big gift. She's already much better at it than I'd expected.
Harrison is such a sweet brother to her (most of the time!). He was the patient all night while she played doctor with her new doctor kit.
We did pink cupcakes and she got to blow out 3 more candles on her big day.
I love my sweet girl so much! I'm so thankful that she is our and we had such a fun weekend celebrating her!
