Isabella and me

I am FINALLY getting interested in my baby doll Isabella that I got from my birthday. My Unlce Danny brought me a new diaper changing table and some jammies for her to wear for my birthday. Tonight Mommy and I put her in her new jammies to bring her to bed. She would like Isabella to sleep with her tonight.

Look Mommy I am changing her all by myself...

An arts and crafts birthday party

Juliette just went to an adorable arts and crafts birthday party. She was quite excited about making her projects.

Making her birthday crown

what could be more fun than glue....?

All the little girls wanted rainbows, dolphins, etc... Juliette requested a dog on one side and a witch on the other... (witches are her favorite!)

we went on a little vacation to Lake Lure in NC...

We just got home from a super nice and super relaxing vacation in Lake Lure. That is right outside of Asheville in the mountains. It was SO beautiful there! We were able to explore all of the old fashion little towns. Juliette was such a trooper too and really was a lot of fun. She took a good nap each afternoon and was ready to hang out that evening. We even hiked Chimney Rock and she did it all by herself. We did not have to carry her up any of the stairs.

Playing cash register with the telephone... I used to love to do this

Juliette LOVED the lake! Nice to know there is nothing scary in this lake...

I promise I can be a big girl at the "King's Crown" just like Fancy Nancy... this is what she told us the night we went to a fancy dinner

Leading the ship in the park... wide turn ahead!

A special little girl turned "3" today...

Three years old! Wow! What a wonderful day we have had a turning three. Juliette woke up this morning and was SO very excited about her birthday party today which was at The Children's Museum. It was so cute and all of the little ones had so much fun! All of the little girls came looking so precious and all like Princesses and all Juliette wanted to play with were Thomas and Nirvaan the only two boys at the party. Don looked at me half way through the party and asked if Juliette ever liked to intereact with girls... ha!

We followed the party with some gelato from Paolo's right down the street downtown. It was such a fun day!

Happy happy birthday to the sweetest, funniest and yes cutest three year old around! We love we love you we love you!!
