Birthday Girl

 Last Friday was Kendall's 3rd Birthday. Since she turned 3 she graduated out of the early head-start program. They were closed on Friday so her last day was Thursday and she spent Friday with my sister. Currently they do not have any spots open at the next level of head-start so she will be going to the sitter full-time until a spot opens up and then she will go part time to head-start and part time to the sitters.

On her day spent at home with Auntie they baked cookies and watched cartoons. Then went and got ice cream and happy meals and came and visited me at work. She has a really great time and wanted to dress up like a princess. She had a tiara but didn't want to wear it.

She requested that we to go the Mexicans (Fiesta En Jalisco) for burritos and so they would sing to her. She was a little shy but loved every minute of it. Her birthday party wasn't until Saturday it was nice to go out and have a little family dinner on her actual birthday.

It took lots of shopping trips and planning and wine but she got a new bed for her birthday. I found the frame used which is a big plus and she can grow into it. The bottom and the rails come off so it could just be a regular twin bed for when she gets older. I had a heck of a time putting it together and when it was all done wine was required. She loved it when she woke up from nap and was surprised with it. She still has been a little scared of staying in it all night but she is sick right now so i think once she feels better she wont have any problems.

My good friend Toni made us another fabulous cake. Kendall requested it be purple with strawberries and then a couple days before the party she was upset it wasn't going to have a rainbow so Toni was able to work that request and came up with a wonderful cake. It was a strawberry lemonade cake with strawberry filling and it was delicious. Kendall is not a huge fan of cake but LOVES fondant so she just jumped right in and took a bite right out of the rainbow after we sang to her.

I don't have any pictures from the party because the camera on my phone is being so slow that it takes forever to get a picture taken and then it usually is blurry cause K won't sit still that long. All in all it was a very successful day and the kids all had fun playing.

Happy Monday!
