Our Big Three Year Old

I'm still in a state of shock that 3 years ago we delivered our sweet baby girl! Time is flying by and I keep telling Jayden to stop growing older, but she clearly isn't listening :) 

This year was a little different since we were at our company conference all week, so Jayden came down after daycare to celebrate with a small birthday dinner. While she was at Ms. Kathleen's house all week, they had a few celebrations each day so all the kids could celebrate her birthday!

Girls just want to have FUN!


Loving that cupcake!


Today's the day!! Party time with the next group at Ms. Kathleen's!
Starting the day off with building legos! She loves her trains!!


Party hats and all! 


Our little Birthday Cutie!


Last, but not least, family celebration down at mommy & daddy's conference. Best part of our day was celebrating with you Jayden!


Love how happy she is!


I'm a little late posting about her birthday as today we had her 3 year appointment and I wanted to know her actual height & weight! This appointment went much better than her last check up! She was still a little apprehensive, but overall did great. I told her we were going to the doctor, like Doc McStuffins, so she would get excited. While we were there, Princess Ariel & I had to have our ears & heart checked before she would do any of it...oh the things we do for our kids! :)

Overall the doctor is happy with her progress! She is still in the 3rd percentile, but exceeding all expectations for development.

Pump It Up!

All week long, we've been looking forward to today...Jayden's Birthday Party! I still can't believe she's almost 3!!! 
We went to Pump it Up and jumped all morning! Every day this week Jayden kept asking if it was her birthday party day...and every time she would tell someone we were going to the bounce house for her birthday, she would invite them! She would say "you come with us?" ~ she's so sweet! Love her to pieces <3

Well this morning Jayden came running in our room excited to go to the bounce house! It was so much fun getting her ready for the party...of course I made her take a picture before leaving...

Classic pose!


Her curtsy is too cute! <3


She also wanted to show me how old she is turning...since she has a hard time keeping just three fingers up, she holds two of them down with the other hand :)


Family pic before the party started! 
Sophia & Savannah stayed home since it was their nap time...and we could play with Jayden the whole time at the party. 
We missed you Sophia & Savannah!


Hanging with friends while waiting for the party to start!


Cheese <3


Party time!


Jumpin' with daddy!!




All of the kids had a blast!!!





Jayden said her favorite was the slide! 
Pretty sure she went down about 20 times!


Everyone having fun on the slides!!




BUBBLE TIME!!!


Even the young kiddos had fun!





The parents had just as much fun as the kids! 
Building forts...


...going down the slides...


or going across the blow up balls!


 


Everyone had a blast!


Group pic before heading to the party room to eat :)


Special thanks to Monnie & Auntie B for helping bring the food!






Time for the kiddos to eat!






The Girls!


The kids were pooped out! Pretty sure all the parents were thanking me when their kids passed out for nap time after jumping and playing all morning!

After the party, some family came over to continue celebrating! Grandma Dee stopped by with a very special surprise for Jayden! Her very first Barbie Cake! She LOVED it! 


Thanks Grandma Dee for such a special treat!


Thanks to all our friends and family for celebrating our sweet (soon-to-be) 3 year old today! We had such an amazing day and loved sharing it with you!
