Happy Birthday Brenna

I can't believe my little girl is three now. Where did my baby go? We had a wonderful day today. It was so fun to celebrate with a child that really understood what her birthday was all about. We started the day when I went inside to get her up. I asked her what today was, and she smiled saying, "It's my birthday!" I decided to get donuts for everyone this morning. She got a chocolate cake donut with sprinkles. In her typical crazy eating style, she ate all the chocolate and sprinkle first then part of the cake part.

Brenna and I spent the day in SA. I had a doctor's appointment and I know she would enjoy a special day today. We went to "Build-a-Bear" for the first time today. She loved picking out an animal and then watching it being stuffed.


The employees there do a great job getting the kids to interact. They help stuff the bear and then they put a little heart into the bear before sewing it up. How sweet is Brenna making a wish and kissing the heart for her bunny?


Then she took her bunny to be washed and brushed.


Later we picked out clothes and left with a birth certificate stating the "Trina" has the same birthday as Brenna. So sweet.


We ate lunch with Avery and Poppi then picked up Tanner from school. Dad and I had the joy of watching 3 kids run all over the park. They were very cute playing together and having so much fun.

When we came home we ate a dinner of pizza. Brenna got to pick and that is what she wanted. She does love her pizza. Then after dinner, we opened gifts and cards. She did love her special day. It was fun to sit around and just spend time together.


Thanks for all the cards. She loved opening all them and looking at the pictures.

Thanks for the clothes Oma and Pepere, and Aunt Cyndi and Uncle Carlos. She loved all her new clothes. This was the first time she has really loved taking them all out and looking at each piece of clothing. We talked about the colors and what was on each outfit. Wish you could have been here with us.


I loved watching Brenna and Nathan play together. She loves her Daddy so much. From the words that belong to Mom, "It makes my heart go pitter pat."


We had a great day. Happy Birthday my little girl. You are truly a blessing. I am more aware of how special you are with each passing day. You are my little miracle baby. I love watching you grow and learn. I look forward to seeing what 3 brings us.


Next up is the birthday party. I'm sure there will be all sorts of pictures of that too. Look for a coming post.

Wow! I can't believe Brenna is already three! I know I can't wait for Elijah to be old enough to do Build-A-Bear. The lady that thought that up is a pure genius. I hope Brenna enjoyed her birthday and she has a great time at her party tomorrow. One more thing, is it wrong to be jealous of all her clothes?
