THREE!

Hulk baby is three today! Wow! I can't believe my sweet little girl is three!














Just look at this awesome Cinderella cake my aunt made for her! :)















I can just see it in her eyes... "I can't believe this beautiful cake is for ME!"
















It took three tries to get all three candles out.




















And, of course, ALL enjoyed the delicious cake. :)

Life's Lessons...

that I have, fortunately, NOT had learn the hard way...

  • Always check the toaster for crayons before making toast.
  • A one year old may need to be 'frisked' before nap time - micro machines are not a crib toy.
  • Always check the tape deck for Lego men before attempting to insert a tape.














You just never know where the burial ground might be.

Then there's the lesson I had to learn the hard way... TWICE.
  • Always check your pockets for confiscated crayons before putting them in the wash.

Yeah. Not too smart, I tell ya. The last episode was a few months ago. Never again, NEVER AGAIN, will I put a crayon in my pocket.

And - via other mom's experiences:

  • Peanut butter sandwiches DO fit in the VCR.
  • A large potato or a nice smooth rock about the size of a baseball WILL NOT flush down the toilet they will get stuck.
  • Making hard boiled eggs in the microwave is hazardous to your health and you WILL NEED a new microwave.
  • Motorcycles (or - insert toy of preference) do fly!
  • A laptop screen is no match for a toddler's head.

Please feel free to add your knowledge to the comments. :)
