Charlotte is THREE

To celebrate, we had three birthday parties for her. It wasn't intentional. It just seems easier to celebrate celebrations. Now Lucas is expecting three parties for his 5th birthday. I don't know if I can make that happen. He's already planning it and telling me exactly what he wants. Anyway, back on Char...

Char continues to be small but mighty! She is a petite girl with a BIG personality. She's not afraid to get rough and tough with her brother (and as you probably know, can easily beat him up) but is also a very princess-y girlie girl. She is also quite the blunt little one. Sometimes I'm a bit embarrassed cause this little girl needs a filter. She means well though. This year was a year of lots of pink and purple, dance classes with a cute (mandatory) pink ballet outfit, and new friends for Char. 

Small but mighty since birth

We had a school party for Char at Chuck E. Cheese. Having it there was one of the best decisions we ever made! Tons kids are w-i-l-d! It felt so good to leave with the mess we made! Char handpicked her closest friends at school and was so happy to see them as they arrived. 

 She claims she wants to marry this one (the feeling is reciprocal)

 She's not that short, these kids are just tall!

 Lucas had a blast playing with his BFF there too

 For a small party, it was pretty big

 I think Daddy had a blast too

Today we had a birthday party with her cousins. It was a bit draining since I was still recovering from our flight home and getting the house in order. Well, there's nothing a little bit of catering can't fix. However, cleaning up took quite a bit of energy!

 Picked out her strawberry cake and waiting for everyone to sing to her

 Such a ham

 Party's over -> nap time --> sleeping with (new) princesses

And that was 3! Next up, a 40th birthday is coming up...
