3 Darling Daughters: January 2012

I am THREE!

Today I turned 3 years old! I actually thought that when a person's birthday comes, they "grow up" on their birthday. I even said to my mommy when she told me my birthday was coming up, "but I don't want to grow up, it will hurt!" So, my birthday came and went and I didn't grow up. I was under the impression that I would get as tall as my mommy and become a "big girl" but I'm glad that was not the reality! Instead of experiencing "growing pains" I got a new playset, tons of friends and family, a hot pink cake, and more presents than I can count! I am so thankful for having such a loving family and a great group of friend to help me celebrate. Here is a glimpse of the fun:

Christmas In Conroe

This Christmas, mommy and daddy told me all about Santa. They also told me all about Baby Jesus and how Santa brings presents on Christmas to celebrate Baby Jesus's birthday. My favorite Christmas movie this year was Polar Express! I probably watched it 20 times over the course of the season! This prompted me to want to drink a lot of hot chocolate and to ask for a bell and a train for Christmas! Luckily, I was a pretty good girl this year and Santa brought exactly what I asked for, thanks Santa! It was so fun putting out the food for the reindeer and cookies and milk for Santa. When I woke up on Christmas morning, there was a train set up and ready to play with. But I was actually more interested in checking to see if the reindeer ate the food I left! So I got bundled up to go outside with Gramps to check. Sure enough the reindeer like my concoction of granola and glitter I left for them!

I don't really understand the concept of next Christmas being a year away so I figure I better be on my best behavior all the time. The other day, Annabelle was acting up (surprise surprise) and I said "Annabelle, you betta be good or else Santa not gunna bring you no more more presents!" Thats right, I look out for my sister :)

Here we are all dressed up in Santa Hats!

All the girls, dressed up for mass! We won't talk about what happened at Christmas mass. Lets just say we didn't make it to the end and Mommy and Daddy weren't too happy...
