3 Already?!

We had such a fun birthday for Toby. She turned 3 on Sunday, July 18th. Saturday the 17th was my little sister Jamie's wedding. That explains Toby's crazy hair... It was cute for the wedding-Promise. It was a crazy, special, busy, yet very fun weekend! Toby asked for waffles for her special birthday breakfast. She soon discovered that the Birthday Fairy made a visit and left her some birthday money, which she was able to put in her new piggy bank!She loved opening all her presents, she has the best facial expressions. I didn't add many due to the already abundant overload of pictures... Here she is waiting for her grand finale.For months when asked what she wanted for her birthday, she would always say a bike. Lucky girl she got just what she wanted!The next day, Monday we went to the park by our house and had a Slip 'n Slide party! It turned out to be so much fun! We got a 100 ft long tarp and some dish soap, TJ rigged up a pipe at the top to screw the hose into so there was even water running down.Toby has a blast, I don't know how many time she went down the slide.I do think however that the big boys had more fun than the little ones! They of course had to take running jumps, dives, and even surf down. The 100 ft long slide was to short for them. They would have to tuck and roll when they got to the bottom because they would go flying off the slide and eat grass for a 6 more feet! haha it was pretty funny!I baked Toby's cupcakes inside ice cream cone, I frosted half of them at home and then realized I needed to transport them still to the park.... not a good Idea. Every single frosted one flipped upside down in the pan or ended up on the ground. Good thing I saved a group to frost at the park. It was SO WINDY! The balloons kept pulling over the candy filled sparkler vases, which made Toby very unhappy! She did not like her candy spilling on the ground. My table looked cute for all of about 3o seconds, then the vases came down, balloons came off, and more cupcakes tipped over... Haha It's the thought that counts right??Here are some 34 week belly pictures courtesy of my Father in law.
Happy Birthday Toby, I am so glad you're a part of our family and we have the opportunity to watch and help you grow. I'm glad you decided to spend your life with us. You couldn't make us happier!
