On Wednesday Sept 26 our little Hallie turned 3 yrs old!!! I always wished growing up that birthdays had been a bigger deal but since we all know you can't change the past having kids is the best way to feel that so the whole day was a lot of fun. We had a big party in August with friends and family so for the day it was pretty much us. The night before Matt and I decorated Hallie's door with balloons and streamers and the squeals the next morning were awesome.
Matt was able to go into work late so we made breakfast complete with funfetti pancakes, hash browns, sausage, and chocolate milk. Hallie was so excited and kept saying how much she loved all of it.
After getting ready for the day it was time for preschool. Hallie had requested grape cupcakes for her birthday and after some pinterest had the vision which came out beautifully. Hallie was thrilled with the purple frosting and pink sprinkles with wonderful grape flavor. After the lesson the kids had cupcakes, ice cream sandwiches, and sparkling apple cider but not until they sang Happy Birthday.
Then we came home for a nap...birthdays are hard work. After a couple hours of down time Hallie and Gracie played downstairs. They play so well together Hallie is always great to include Gracie and make sure she is involved to. I went back to find them with crowns, wands and Hallie in a skirt she said she couldn't get one on Gracie but I'm guessing she tried. They were listening to Disney princess music and couldn't have been happier.
When Matt got home we loaded up and headed to Texas Roadhouse...Hallie asked to sit on the saddle for her birthday and we were happy to oblige. We met up with Grandma Joy. Hallie got a free kids meal of mac n cheese and apple sauce and then got to set on the saddle. When they actually brought the saddle she was a little nervous so Matt sat with her while they did the "yee ha" then she was fine and sat there for a while.
We were excited that Grandma Joy was able to join us and gave Hallie some money to buy a souvenir at Aladdin.
Happy Birthday to our sweet girl I can't believe its been 3 years already.
