Our baby is 3!!!

Where did the time go. March 16 came again and Eveyanna turned 3! We were in Post Falls Idaho on the big day and boy oh boy did we have a blast! Grammie Debbie threw her an amazing party combined for Auntie Jodi! She made both the cakes and we ate some awesome burgers and hot dogs. Then we opened presents and roasted some yummy marshmallows! She was happy to have her cousins Em, Daniel and Uncle Dan and Auntie Jodi and grams with us on her day!





On her big day she was especially happy since her daddy was home!!! He arrived back on the 15th from a 2 week long fundraising trip to California. For her big day daddy brought her a cute coin purse, a doll from "Where the Wild Things Are" and a Sleeping Beauty gown! She was one happy bean!



She got many other special gifts too from those that love and adore her! Here's a pic of her on her new big from Grammie!

We sure love this kid! Here are some facts about YOU miss Eveyanna. (putting it in the blog since your "birthday book" is now residing in Kigali Rwanda at this moment in time).



Your favorites:
Food: mac n cheese, chicken noodle soup, flavor ice popsicles, cookie dough, frozen yogurt, orange sorbet, sprite, dr. pepper, peach tea, fruit snacks, almost any kind of fruit, broccoli.

Shows: Loves Dora!, Backyardagains, Arial movies


Toys: loves her barbies and playing pretend. Since we're on the move right now, compact toys are best for us, so barbies work well. She loves kitchens too, but again, hers is in Rwanda!

Likes: Dressing herself, doing everything by herself. Declaring she's a BIG GIRL, not a BABY!, Bandaids for any bruise or scratch. Making messes. The idea of being a big sis. We're preparing for that everyday! Loves McDonalds parks or any kind of park. Playing with older kids about the age of 8-10 who think she's still cute and will play with her a ton. Riley Osborn is your favorite older cool kid to hang with, and your cousin Emily. Reading. Love it! Singing. You love to make up your own songs whenever you can! And you prefer to sing alone, unless it's bed time and you still prefer us to sing to you then! Saying the prayer at meals.



Dislikes: Being restrained at all. If daddy hugs too tight it annoys you! Bathing annoys you....maybe cause all of our cool bath toys are in Rwanda? Dunno. You used to love baths! Rushing to get out of the house. like in the am, we have to be sure to give you time to wake up and get ready at your pace!

Facts: you're still not much of an "artist". You have the attention span of about 3 minutes for coloring or painting. You're a great traveler. We've put about 20 thousand or more miles on our car in the last 6 months and you have been such a trooper! You love to watch movies in the car on the dvd player. You're an amazing talker. Very smart. You have been a great talking since you were 2 or before. You speak like you're 5 and surprise people often with your vocabulary! You sill can't recognize all the letters and numbers, but you're learning!

yummy food!
