3 Years

Dearest P2,

I can't believe you are already 3 years old! You are our little sweetheart and also our drama queen. You have the cutest smile and give the best hugs. You still love to pout when you don't get your way or when you get in trouble. You love your "soft" blankie and still like to suck your thumb. You can be very shy sometimes and like to stick close to mom when others are around. You love your big brother, and you "usually" play really well together. Pink is still your favorite color. You love "My Little Pony", "Sofia the First", "Trolls", and all things princesses. Ariel is currently your favorite princess. You also love "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", "Jake & the Neverland Pirates", and "Transformers". What can I say, you are well rounded! 

You love to bounce and spin around. Some of your favorite foods are applesauce, yogurt, fruit, and oatmeal. You do not like owies and don't even like to see them on other people. If someone has a band-aid on, then you are afraid to touch it because you think it will hurt you. You are finally potty trained (hurray!!!), and I am so glad.

You are our silly, sweet girl and we love you very much. We are so glad to have you in our family!

Love,

Mom

The Treehouse Museum

Our friends invited us to go to the Treehouse Museum with them. It is up in Ogden and we had never been before. It is similar to the Discovery Gateway in Salt Lake, but I actually liked the Treehouse Museum better. Maybe it was just the day we were there, but it wasn't as crowded as the Discovery Gateway gets. The kids had a lot of fun exploring all the exhibits.

Ride 'em cowboys!

 

 

Detective P2 finds herself in jail:

The Ogden temple is right across the street from the museum, so that was fun to see.

We took a lunch break at The Blue Lemon. I was planning on going home for lunch, but the kids were having so much fun that we decided to spend the whole day at the museum. And The Blue Lemon was very close and had food that I could eat.

The kids were able to milk a (fake) cow!

P1 tried really hard to pull the sword out of the stone:

 

 

Father's Day

We sure love this guy! He is a great father and we are sure blessed to have him!

Fake smiles:

The kids may or may not have told Dad beforehand that we bought him a helmet. We are still working on the keeping secrets thing.

Birthday Celebration #1

My parents were going to be out of town for P2's birthday, so we ended up doing a combined birthday celebration for me and P2. We went swimming, opened presents, and had cupcakes and ice cream to celebrate.

The Birthday Princess:

P2 got the Disney Animator's Collection of princess dolls from grandma and grandpa:

I made pink cupcakes for P2 and paleo strawberry shortcake cupcakes for me. I also made strawberry ice cream for me using coconut cream. The cupcakes were okay, but the ice cream turned out pretty well.
