Lacey's 3 Year Birthday Pictures

I had orginally planned to take Lacey's pictures myself, but the weather just would NOT cooperate!

So we opted for the tried and true Portrait Innovations. I love that place, I always get WAY more pictures that I need and almost always LOVE all of the pictures.

I think they did a great job capturing Lacey's personality! Fiesty, spunky, and sweet indeed!

The tope 3 pictures are the ones that I ended up selecting. She did a great job!

Love you Lacey!

Happy 3rd Birthday To Lacey!

Our loveable, laughable, lively little Lacey turns 3 today!!!

She is such a smart, sweet, yet sassy, spunky, and silly little girl. We wouldn't want her any other way.

Dear Lacey,

Mommy and Daddy love you so much. We love the fact that your eyes are always sparkling. It is you that keeps us on our toes at all times. Not just because we wonder what you could be getting into but also because we wonder what you are going to think to say next! You have such a way with your words even at only 3. Lots of people have a hard time beliving you are just turning 3!

At 3 years old you can spell and recognize your name in print. You are obsesessed with Dora and the Disney Princesses. You Love the letter 'L'. Your favorite colors are pink and purple. You can count to 16 and know pretty much all of your colors. Your teachers at daycare tell me you are almost the first one to shout out the letter when they print them on the board.

We are so proud of you Lacey. Mommy and Daddy cannot wait to see what your future holds, one thing we know is it will be bright! We will always be there to support you no matter what.

Love you,
Mommy and Daddy

Halloween!

The girls had so much fun for halloween this year.

I was able to visit all three girls' parties at their school.

Kylie's had a parade at hers, the junior high marching band led the way. I'll post that video tomorrow!

Kylie decided that she want to be a bumble bee this year, which was a surprise because all year she wanted to be an indian girl and at the last minute changed her mind which is SO unlike her.

Lacey and Katie's daycare did a parade too. Its was cute, as soon as the little ones came around the corner and saw their parents....parade was over!

Katie was carried in the parade by 'thing 2'

Evidence of kids breaking away from the parade...namely Lacey! Although it looks like she was the only one in this picture, you will notice all the other parents standing around too, that's because their kid already came and go them.

Lacey loved being a princess this year...she told everyone she could how pretty she was. I thought she looked pretty cute too!

My little ~~Katie~~bug Ladybug! She is the second one of my daughters to be a lady bug, Kylie was first and hated her costume. So much so that the next year for halloween I didn't even get her a costume. Katie didn't mind hers at all!
