Happy 3rd Birthday, Hailey!

Well, the day after Caleb was born, Hailey turned 3. I felt bad about being in the hospital and not being able to celebrate on the actual day, so on Sunday when we came home we had both grandmas over and were able to open some gifts and enjoy some cupcakes. She obviously didn't care which day we celebrated on, so all is well. I can't believe that she is 3! She is an irreplaceable part of our family, and I feel blessed to be her mom. Here are some pics:

A tea set (she loves to sit down and have tea parties with anyone who is willing)


Her first actual 'barbie' - but dressed up like a Disney princess
Of course you eat all of the pink frosting first

I have to say that Matt gets lots of great dad points - he was completely exhausted having just survived my being away for a few days, is trying to make sure that everyone is okay, had done all of the little girl birthday shopping on his own, etc. etc, and after everyone went home he sat down on the floor and open each box, playing with each item - Hailey loved it!

Matt selected splendid gifts, no doubt tapping his inner princess. Let's relax next week!
