Brooklyn is 3!

I know I'm a few weeks behind.  Brooklyn celebrated her 3rd birthday on the 7th and I figured I better get some pictures posted before she turns 4.  Brooklyn is such a fun girl.  She seems older than my other kids did at 3, probably because she talks so well.  She is always singing and dancing around the house and I love her cute little voice.  Right now she is going through a really competitive stage.  Everything is a race or a game.  And this sweet little red-head knows how to trash-talk!  Even if we are just walking down the hallway she says, "I'm gonna Win!!"  The one time I actually tried to challenge her by saying, "nuh-uh, I'm gonna win!"  She responded by running faster and yelling, "Not today!"  and of course she is laughing the whole time!  And she ALWAYS does a little victory dance.  If I wasn't busy laughing my head off at her I would probably try to teach her a little more sportsmanship.  (Maybe we'll work on that next week.)  She had a fun birthday, when I asked her what she wanted in the weeks leading up to the day, all she would say was a cake and balloons and a party.  Pretty easy demands, and since I have older kids and know that these simple requests won't last long, that's what she got.  Here are some pictures from the day.



we had noodles for dinner, (brooklyn's choice)

Brooklyn doesn't like to be the center of attention especially when there are lots of people around, so she was very nice and let her siblings help her open her presents.  

Brooklyn's friend Dallis was able to come over for cupcakes and icecream.  

Brooklyn's 2nd cupcake, I don't think much made it into her mouth.

Brooklyn had to have her two new dolls to go to bed that night.  
(thanks Grand-Parents)


P.S.  We are goin on 1 week with out the Binky, I think we are done with them! (They started getting holes in them so she didn't like them, and then she lost her last one about a week ago and we are hoping she doesn't find it.)

She is such a delightful blend of her parents. And I laughed reading about how she doesn't like to be the center of attention... reminded me of her mom at about the same age.
