Celebrating Sylvie

My half-finished photo project for my office made for some good decorations for Sylvie's birthday today. :) Love those happy accidents {that occur to me @ 1 AM when I'm about to go to sleep, but decide to better-decorate so that our three-year-old has something fun to wake up to on HER day!}!

Good morning! Happy Birthday Sylvie!

 She had her 3-year wellness appointment this morning.  This was the first time they gave us a paper gown.  Sylvie was not sure about it.  I tried to make her feel better by telling her I'd make her a princess gown like Cinderella- ha!  She was still not sure...and the grumpy face is b/c this was before we were told that there would be no vaccinations/no shots at this visit.  :)

Then she went to daycare to hang out with her pals for the day.  We had a birthday(care) party with cupcakes and cookies that the little miss picked out herself.

 Her besties- Jillian and Emma!

She came home to see the present Mimi got for her...we wanted to allow her some time to try it out herself before Brady saw it and took over. ;p  Daddy even let her ride it in the house- weeeeeee!

Then we went to Sweetwater Tavern for dinner (Sylvie wanted mac and cheese for dinner, and you can get that anywhere, so why not go somewhere we all enjoy?!).  She took her new (hand-me-down) stroller to the restaurant.  We have so many strollers already, we decided that this one would be another outside one.  She rolled that thing through the parking lot, through the restaurant, and parked it at the table. so cute!

Brady found her ATV immediately when we got home.  He was a RIOT on that thing!  (just look at his face!)  This time we took it in the basement.  His hysterical laughter is so contagious!

 

He was loving it and it worked out fabulously that Sylvie actually prefers to be his passenger than be the driver.  a.w.e.s.o.m.e!!! {aren't they the cutest? he wanted a "number shirt too to wear today" when he saw Sylvie's and goes, "hey! how about I wear my 5 shirt cuz I've 5 and Sylvie wears her 3 shirt cuz now she's 3?" good plan dude, good plan}

We opened some more presents and had some More cupcakes to finish out Sylvie's fun third birthday! 

Our present to her was her first Barbie, with a remote-control car so she could be like Brady. :)

 He thought it was hilarious to try and jump over her car while she drove it.  We thought so too.  haha!

I decided to implement something I saw online- decorate with balloons with dollar bills in them and the birthday kid gets to pop the balloon to get their money for their piggy bank.  I forgot to do this on Brady's birthday, so he got a green balloon with a $5 bill in it. :p  Sylvie had three pink balloons with dollar bills.

  New strategy: teamwork.  Maybe more weight will pop it! :)

Happy Birthday Baby Bunny!  We Love You!
