Technically, Anna's birthday was November 1 (Saturday), but I was fairly confident that pulling off a special day for my little girl wouldn't be possible upon re-entry. So we celebrated today! (I promise this is the last of our "season" of birthdays that we are celebrating on a different days!
It was a great day - made all the better by the fact that Daddy was home!
We started the day with presents - of course!
(she IS such a smiley girl!)
and birthday donuts!!!
(Anna chose mini-donuts)
The weather was so beautiful today that Anna even got to try out her birthday present!
I am unsure why this picture posted to the side :)
But - we also had Anna's dinner of choice - spaghetti, salad, bread and a vanilla birthday cake with chocolate frosting! Yummy!
I can't believe she's three!
And somehow - she really did grow up while I was gone. Relieved - as it seems that she is a little more responsible. Sad - because she isn't my baby anymore.
So thankful that we have enjoyed the last 16 months of her 36 months of life. Blessed to be her family.
