Here is the birthday girl helping me ice cookies for her party
Kemp is such a big help for me. He was asking me all day how he could help get ready for her party
Face painting. She wanted to be a pink puppy, of course.
Some of the decorations (thanks Sommers and Jess!)
We had a doggie obedience school. If they did their tricks right they got treats.
Andi is fetching the ball.
I was excited we found this adorable puppy pinata
I can't believe she is 3.
Eating cake and ice cream in their doggie bowls
But Andi was the only one who skipped the fork and ate like a real puppy. She takes this being a dog thing to a whole new level.
My little girl is obsessed with dogs. She is pretending to be a dog a good portion of every day. So needless to say she was really, really, excited about having a puppy party. It was so fun, at 3 they really start to understand the whole b-day thing, and they get so excited. It is bittersweet though. Because she is growing up. And she is, and will be, my only little girl, so I am not ready to let go of her innocent youth. I am sure all you mom's can relate. She has been my little angel since the day she was born. I was sooo nervous about having a girl, and would I have the same love for my second, as I did for my first. It is amazing the capacity of love one heart can hold isn't it? And how when she came it seemed like she was always meant to be with us. And to see the way she has daddy wrapped around her little finger too,(I am not sure he even knows how to say no to her) is a testament to her heart warming ability. She can be shy, and sensitive, but she is also so warm and loving. She loves to snuggle and give kisses. She wants to do anything her big brother is doing. She does that thing where she pats and rubs my back when I give her a hug. She reminds Chad and I every day the she is "Just little" and I wish there was some way she could stay that way. But as long as she is happy and always knows how much me, her dad, and her brother(s) love her, that is all I can hope for.
