Happy Birthday Sweet Kailey-Cakes!








Happy, Happy Birthday, sweet girl! It's so hard to believe it's been three years since you made your arrival into this world. It was a long, loooong labor that brought you here, but so very worth every single minute. You are the joy in our lives that made us realize how truly fortunate we are to be called Mommy and Daddy. We love you more and more with each beat of our hearts!
We had an incredible day of fun, food and friends. Our close buddies came over for cupcake decorating (Kailey had, by far, the most sugar and icing on her cupcake), pizza, presents, playroom time and the pinkest cake you ever saw. I did take on the role of Betty Crocker and baked her birthday cake...for the first time ever. Originally, Kailey wanted a green cake, but then changed her mind to a pink cake. I tried to oblige by baking the oooie-gooiest cake I possibly could. Yum!
The only disappointment of the day, as far as Kailey was concerned, was the Santa and her friends, the princesses, couldn't make it. She's a little confused about the whole gifts from Santa for Christmas vs. Birthday issue being that Christmas was just ten days ago. She also couldn't understand why Saturday had to be cleaning day for Cinderella, Snow White and Ariel and that's why they couldn't come to her party. (What am I going to do when these stories don't work anymore?)
Overall, these special days get better and better as the kids get older. Owen finally tasted some cake and absolutely LOVED it! Good boy, he likes his mom's better than any store bought cake! As for Kailey, I think three is going to be a pretty fabulous year!

I really miss my cutie patootie niece and nephew! I can't wait for the day that you tell me that you're moving to Houston! :)
