Hard to believe that 3 years have gone by already -- some days it seems like it went really fast and others, well, you know what I mean! Funny how at this age, three years old seems quite old. I remember Trent saying that during Caroline's second year that a few things would change and they have!! In the last year, Caroline gave up her binkies (last summer she threw them in the trash!), she is potty trained -- for the most part! and she is now sleeping in a big girl bed. She also became a big sister! Lots of changes from being a baby to becoming a big girl in the last year. This year, she very much knew what a birthday was and kept asking when hers was going to be so when the big day came, she was very excited!
We had an ice cream birthday party for her at the neighborhood center where we played "Pin the nose on Elmo" and "Mother, May I?". We ate ice cream and cupcakes and all the kids ran around. Of course, since they are only three, there was a little chaos and some crying but overall it turned out great!
On her actual birthday, Aunt Laurie, Uncle Crispin and Madeline came over to celebrate with Caroline's favorite -- chocolate cake with M & M's and opening presents. She received a doctor's coat and outfit which she loves since everyday, her baby or Hannah receives a doctor's appointment. Wonder if she will laugh at herself in this outfit someday or maybe it will come true, who knows??? Happy 3rd birthday, Caroline!!
