Thursday, July 9 our daughter turns THREE! We celebrated her birthday a few days early when we had some family in town. She will be seeing her other grandparents on Sunday so I am sure she will be celebrating her birthday then too! I remember three years ago when we went out to dinner with 3 other couples as I was having contractions. I remember how nervous and excited I was and how amazed I was to see A. the first time!Our big girl!
Here she is with her two cousins, enjoying the Mickey king-size cupcakes. Because her party just had two friends, we bought the three of them plates that they can use again and again. I think plates are an awesome party favor because they save the earth and are fun to use again and again by kids! 
The Baker Family with the Birthday Girl.
To make these, I bought king-size cupcake pan just because I thought it would be fun. She selected the devil's food cake mix. Then I put black frosting on them but covered them with Oreo crumbs. Then I placed one side of the cookie on the top as ears. It was simple and she enjoyed it. I feared she would make me use fondant for a Minnie bow but she seemed satisfied with the cupcakes.
YUM
Looking back-
Here we are two nights before she was born.
She was so little and is such an amazing gift from God!
