Tickled Pink to be Three!

Today we celebrated three years with lovable Poppy girl!  Her only request was pink cupcakes and pink.  No gifts, just pink.  So, we did just that.  She woke up to a dining room makeover with pink decor, pink iced cinnamon rolls, strawberry applesauce, and pink milk.  She wanted me to sit and read books to her and she hiked all by herself to a waterfall.  We spent the afternoon eating pink cupcakes with friends and finished the day with a bowl of pink ice cream with pink sprinkles! 

Poppy is a joy and delight.  She is happy, helpful, and full of energy.  She is spirited and only gets upset when she feels she has been wronged.  She takes great care of "The-doe" and all her other babies.  She likes to help cook so she can lick the spoon, lead the way on walks, and draw pictures of our family.  Poppy has grown up so much this year as she now sleeps in a big girl bed, sits at the table like a big girl, and wears big girl panties to bed.  I use to call Poppy and Theo the babies but she doesn't let me get by with that anymore.  She gives cuddly hugs and loves for me to hold her while I do all the things - and I kinda like it ;)

This is her first year doing a birthday interview.  She had us laughing!  Check it out!
