Sylvie’s 3rd birthday

When we ask Sylvie how old she is, she says, “August 29th!” and then holds us 3 fingers.

Good Morning Sylvie, it’s your birthday!  The kids wanted her to open a present before they went to school, but she wasn’t in the best mood. She kept saying, “NO! it’s not my birthday!”

She got to open her new porcelain tea set. She is obsessed with this stuff, so I got her her very own to do whatever she pleases! She loved it!

Now that she is 3, she can do gymnastics all by herself. So, she had her first class on her birthday! As soon as we entered the gym, she ran in and took off her shoes and joined the class without a look back. She was all over the place, she was so excited. That poor teacher!

Look Mom, I got a stamp on my tummy!

After dinner, we met all the family at Leatherby’s for ice cream.

Lucia lost a tooth!

Mmmm, bubblegum ice cream, her favorite!

And more ice cream! Blowing out the candle after everyone in the shoppe sang to her.

 

Opening her gift from Grandma and Grandpa.

She likes to draw on walls, so maybe a chalk board will help her get out of that habit.

This was the only thing she actually asked for, a Dora Ballerina doll! She was happy!

The dolly from Tia Yesenia and the shopping cart from Uncle B were a big hit!

Her bestest bud Eden.

I can’t believe she is 3 already! To think that 3 years ago, I gave birth to her without an epidural and then left the hospital 12 hours later.  She was tiny when she was born and she’s still very small for her age. We hope that this year she: will learn to sit at the dinner table like a proper little lady, learn to go potty, learn to dress herself, start pre-preschool, enter Primary at church, spend lots of time with her cousins, and start to play with her little sister.
