Channing is 3!!!

Our little lady turned three this week! She has definitely added a lot of spunk to our lives and after the other two have been so quiet, it's interesting having one that never stops talking! We sure do love her. On her birthday we had our morning birthday donut which we sang to her with because once again a Rockets game fell on a child's birthday so Ragnar would be working. 

After donuts we went to pick her some balloons out and then off to Grandma's house to get a "friend" for her tea party that Grandma had invited her to. We found our "friend" at build a bear workshop and she had never been and was pretty excited about the adventure.

She chose a lamb or lambie as she calls it for her tea party friend.(She is a little obsessed with Doc McStuffins and it looked like Lambie from the show!)

Here she is going to give her a heart!

Then it was Lambie's bath time!

Here is Channing and Grandma waiting for Lambie to be all ready!

And she's finished! She named her Lucy (after telling her she needed to pick a name) and she was so exited about her and the "house" that she gets to be in when they package the stuffed animals.

At the mall she picked up one more friend from her Oma to also bring to the tea party.

Aunt Natalie and Grandma were ready for the tea party which started outside...and they even wore matching clothes :)

Here is her Lucy the Lambie from Grandma and Rapunzel doll from Oma to take to the party! Doesn't she have great grandmothers!

Grandma decorated so nice and she even got to use real glass cups and plates ;)

Can you tell she's excited!

Here we are...grandma even made sandwiches cut out like dresses and crowns!

She wore a tiara, earrings, and gloves in true princess fashion! She even got pink ice cream for dessert!

Grandma let her open her presents from her and Grandpa and this was her favorite! A Doc Mcstuffins dress up outfit! 
After the excitement of the tea party, she kept telling me she was tired and ready for her nap! Oh my sleepy kids! Haha we had to go get Cavin and Ella from school so we headed home! For dinner we ate her favorite Chicken Nuggets and sang Happy Birthday!

A yummy "Great American Cookie Company" cookie cake.

I think she had a fun day! She kept telling everyone that it was her Birthday! A couple things about Channing. At her 3 year old well check she was 32 pounds. She loves to talk and sing..especially "Let it Go". She loves her monkey and she carries her around with her "polka not" blanket as Channing calls her. She still always sucks her thumb! (her poor teeth!). She loves Doc McStuffins and Frozen. She is a very picky eater and mostly only eats one "real" meal a day. She loves chicken nuggets, strawberries, goldfish, apple juice, and pretzels. She is very bossy and likes to make sure we all know what to do. She also has OCD and is always cleaning up...wonder who she got that from??!?! She wakes up early (and therefore goes to bed early). She is always happy when she wakes up from a nap or bedtime. She loves to watch "shows" and play the cupcake game. She almost never names her stuffed animals, she is very matter of fact, if it's a monkey than his name is monkey. She sure keeps us on our toes and we love her for it! Everywhere we go someone comments on her "beautiful hair". I'm so glad we have gotten 3 fun years with her! 
A special thanks to my mom for making her 3rd birthday special!
