Pink Party

Katelyn's birthday was just before Valentine's Day, but we postponed her little party for a few weeks since mom wasn't feeling like partying. (Or party planning/preparing). But, party day finally came. When asked what kind of party she wanted, she said, "Pink." She is in an all-pink stage, just like her big sister was at this age. But luckily for me, she just wanted a pink party, not a pink kitty party. We made pink cheerios necklaces and played some animal charades, and that was the end of my plans. But Olivia thought we needed another game so she quickly made an animal cake-walk game, that we had to convert to a "3-M&M-walk" since we were limited on cakes to give away. These last 2 pictures are from her actual birthday - she still got to open some presents from family. She's not supposed to be 3 already! The other day, she asked me, "When the baby comes, am I going to have to be a big kid?" She loves for me to be held and gives lots of hugs. I told her no, she can still be little when she wants to, and mom will still love her and hold her. She's already got it figured out that the baby is going to take her spot as baby of the family, and take her toys, too! She's been hiding some of her toys "up high, so that baby can't come and take them" ever since she found out a baby was on the way.

That's so nuts that Katelyn is that big! I remember when she was just a baby! Looks like it was a fun birthday...hopefully that means you're feeling better, too.

Happy Birthday Kate! You can't be three already, I think you should still be flashing your beautiful gummy smile!

Way to go hiding the toys already, Kate! It's good to see she has that figured out already. Happy late birthday!
We were waiting for you guys to show up for Spring Break--you never came!

Happy Birthday! Wow! Three is so big! Her party looks so fun and she has such a big smile. Am I crazy or did that boy in the light blue sweatshirt visit our Primary once? Is he a relative? Your rental home looks gorgeous by the way!
