Edyn Jo turned 3 on December 26th..I think it will always be a challenge to celebrate her birthday due to the business of the season. Oh, if it could just be about the birth of Jesus and celebrating life....**sigh** ...however, she loves it that her birthday is so close to Jesus' birthday. I wanted to do something special for her and Ellie and Edyn got gift cards to Build-a-Bear for their birthdays (thanks Aunt Jennifer and Julie). She REALLY wanted to invite her most special friend to go with her to build a bear...her "boyfriend Cooper". Normally we would freak out about this but we LOVE Cooper's family too and this is a friendship we don't mind encouraging :) My friend Megan met me at the mall and she was SO HELPFUL taking care of Eva while I helped them pick out, fluff, dress and name their reindeers. Thanks so much Megan, you were a lifesaver!!
Picking out their animals...they all ended up getting Rudolph and Clarice...
Cooper showing Edyn how to fluff their reindeers...he has done this before :)
Getting ready to ride the carousel, posing with their new reindeers :)
Having a blast on the carousel....
Oh, Edyn Jo, we thought Ellie was spunky, you know how to take it to a whole new level. You definitely keep us on our toes. You love to swim and you are getting so good at it. It amazes us how fearless you are and how long you like to stay underwater before coming up for air. You are constantly making us laugh with the words that come out of your mouth and we are amazed at the things your 3 year old mind can dream up. You can run laps around the house and up and down stairs in high heels, you like dancing to Taylor Swift and Justin Beiber. You just love to draw and paint, not just on paper but on walls too. You love "reading" your Bible and you have such an incredible understanding of it, even at 3. We love you to the moon and back, Edyn Jo. Happy 3rd Birthday!
