Triple Terrible Two's




Ahhh! My babies are TWO!! Time is flying by way too fast. Addy, Em, and Hailey are like little GIRLS now! Can I still call them my babies? I think I have too or I will cry. :) Have I told you that I LOVE my girls? Seriously they are the best in the world. I never really knew that birthdays were such a big deal for moms. Usually, I think of birthdays as the day to celebrate whoever's birthday it is. But now that I'm a mom, I feel like Addison, Emily, and Hailey's birthday is such a special day for ME! I LOVE being able to celebrate who they are...and to thank God that He blessed us with them in our lives. I know that some days are hard and some days I have no idea what I'm doing as a mother of 3 two year olds...but every day has moments where they make me smile and get all mushy gushy inside. :) I know I get so sappy about them so I'm sorry - but for real, I LOVE Addy Lee, Emily Ann, and Hailey Grace!!!
But anyways, we had a wonderful weekend celebrating. My parents flew in Friday afternoon and then we went to Flabbergast (an indoor play area) to celebrate with my parents and the Dooyema side of the fam. The girls had a BLLAAST and needless to say, they slept VERY well that night. :) They were so brave. They went down so many slides that both Grandma's wouldn't even tackle! We were laughing so hard at the girls though. They had no fear. They'd go down these STEEP high slides, have their eyes WIDE open and hold their breath as they went down. We would expect them to get to the bottom and scream with fear..but instead they'd just say "AGAIN" without any hesitation. The adults were more exhausted then they were!
Then this morning, we had their "friend" dress up party at our house. Each kid could pick a hat, an outfit, shoes, accessories, etc. The girls had so much fun with all their little friends and Ryan and I are so thankful for the community of friends that our girls already have. We love you all and thanks so much for celebrating our little princesses with us!
