Happy Birthday THREE Year Old!!!

A little late, but always better than never!

How is our little lady three years old already? Where do the years go? I'm sure there are many of you who understand exactly what I'm talking about here. The years just go by faster and faster. Has life really gotten that busy? (Yes, actually, it has.)

We had a mini celebration in early April of course, so Matt could be there to wish Miss Madilyn a happy birthday in person. On her actual birthday, we made pink cupcakes and sent them to preschool with her. He teachers said she had a BLAST passing them out to all the kids and telling them she was turning three :) That evening, after school, I brought her In-N-Out and greeted her with her very first chocolate milkshake ever! It was an absolute win. That's a girl after my own heart right there!

After dinner, I took a chocolate cupcake and lit a candle for her. I sang to her and she blew out her candle. Then I handed her a few more gifts Grace had picked out for her big sister. Even though it was small, I think she still had fun.

Easter weekend we drove out to Phoenix where we had another (much bigger) birthday party. Her requests? Pink ponies and a pink cake. Think this gal likes pink a little bit? I think the party was a hit. Madilyn had a wonderful time celebrating with family from both sides (How blessed are we to have so much of our families nearby?!?). She got more presents than she could possibly know what to do with and is having lots of fun with everything!

(I will work on photos later. For now, I'm just trying to get caught up!)
