Things to do on your third birthday...

• Get up at 7:00.  Watch Super Why! with Mom.  Let Mom fall back asleep on the couch for an extra hour.
• Make cinnamon rolls.
• Go "camping" in the closet with Dad. Play flashlight tag.
• Dance with your Prince (aka Dad).  Call out to him, "Prince! Prince! I need to dance."
• Watch your cousin's soccer game.
• Swing and play at the park.  Eat a picnic lunch.
• Buy new summer tennis shoes at Target.  Look for flip-flops.  None in your size.  Bummer.
• Take a nap.
• Wake up early from nap knowing it's party time!
• Wear a new summer outfit because it's 80 degrees outside! 

• Play with your cousins.
• Play a little too rough.  Need one princess bandaid. 
• Eat a lot of spaghetti.  Eat M&Ms, too.
• Attempt to take first cousins pic with all four cousins.

• Open presents!!!!  Carefully take all paper and tape off boxes before opening them. Meticulously look at each present.

• Test out your hula hoop.  Get a little too excited.  Need three more bandaids.
• Make a wish!  Blow out your candle.

• EAT CAKE!  And ice cream.
• Swing on the new swingset that Daddy built for you.

Not a stellar pic, but I love that it shows three of the four bandaids.

• Read your new books.
• Wear your new princess pjs to bed.
• Sleep tight. 

I love you so much, Madeline Grace!  Happy, happy birthday!
