Did someone in our family have a birthday?

You probably all thought that last week the world revolved around Thanksgiving but you would be wrong. It actually revolved around Emma's 3rd birthday. It was such a big event that we celebrated it 3 times! First we celebrated with the Van Bibbers. You can't tell by the pictures but it is also Grandpa Van Bibber's birthday too. Emma decided he needed some help though.

Happy Birthday Dad.

Now on to Emma.

Lighting McQeen book with cars and a ZuZu pet. What's a Zuzu pet? Did you know they have accessories?

Sophie and James checking each other out.

Of course cupcakes.

They also dye your face and poop pink for free.


Two days later the celebration continued at home with Mom and Dad. Emma insisted there be balloons.

Princess coloring book.

Books!

Movies!

The best present ever - my garage sale find - Fisher Price Barn with people and animals. Emma would not stop playing even for a picture.

To make the day special we visited the Living Planet Aquarium in Sandy. It was all right and Emma had fun breezing through it at her high speed pace. But we were spoiled this year by Sea World.

You are able to pet sting rays and that is all that matter to me.





A giant frog that Emma wanted nothing to do with.

Emma is tall for her age but still shorter than thsi type of penguin.

For lunch we hit McDonalds and let Emma play in the playland for the first time. It was a big hit.



Then it was home for more cupcakes made by me - Mom.



Again two days later we celebrated with the Lavenders. Oh yeah it just happened to by Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

James' first turkey day. Still to young for turkey though. He settled for some sweet potatos.

We played games.

James warmed up to Aunt Angie's dog Max.

Then it was time for more presents.

Puzzles and Games.

We also celebrated Cousin Tanner's birthday.

Happy 16th.

Congratulations if you made it all the way through this post. That was a lot of birthday for one little girl.

This week the world again revolves around Emma as we attempt to get her to stop sucking her thumb! Wish us luck she is a good fighter.
