It appears turning 3 is very serious business. At least it looks that way from this picture. In fact, turning 3 is all about running like a bat out of hell around the house so that your mommy can't take a picture of you in clothes and crown she made for you for your birthday. It took a very stren daddy demanding that you "stand still so mommy can get a picture for the blog" to get the above picture.

Turning 3 is also about donuts for breakfast and fancy new bikes(that mama thinks you are entirely too young to ride).

Throw in a few mudpies for good measure....

and keep this year keep the birthday extravaganza to a minimum (unlike Annie's 3).

Beacause really turning 3 is really all about....

Having all your cousins and a few friends over to play movie theatre, selling popcorn, tickets and Twizzlers

and lining up to watch Mary Poppins.

and for mommy three is all about my little baby growing up. I have enjoyed my Maddie at 2 and 1 and younger and I can't wait to share everyday with my Maddie at 3. You bring such joy and surprise to my life, Happy Birthday Maddie Jeanne.
