Makayla turned three this past weekend! It was a great weekend full of fun, family, and all things dress-up! On the day before her birthday, we invited a few friends to a local trampoline park for some birthday jumping fun. The kids had a blast, as did the grown-ups ; ) On her birthday, we had family come over for dinner, cake, and presents. She asked for a Minnie-themed birthday (again), and it was combined with a dress-up theme. Andrew and I turned an old entertainment center into a dress-up unit for Makayla where she could keep her dresses, shoes, jewelry, etc. She was so excited, and has managed to fill the unit up very quickly with all of the accessories she received.
We are so proud of our blonde-hair, blue-eyed princess. She definitely keeps us on our toes, and is currently taking on the role of the mischievous middle child. She has a way of doing something she knows she's not supposed to, and then flashing her sweet smile in an effort to make your heart melt. She is full of energy, a monkey acrobat, an artist who loves to color, draw, and decorate, a bit of a hoarder, a singer, and entertainer to her little sis. She has a love/hate relationship with her older bro, but I know he will always be the first one to stand up for her. She is growing like a weed, her vocabulary continues to expand, and she can't wait to go to school like J. She is my shopping side-kick, and my fellow Starbucks "coffee" lover. She truly lives up to her middle name (Joy!). We love you, Makayla!
