Sophie Anne's 3 year well check!

This little beauty of ours had her 3 year well check today.  She has become quite easy going at the Dr.'s office thru the last few visits. ( I think from watching a lot of Doc Mcstuffins)  No shots for her today just a regular well check. 

Our Bugaboos weighed in at 32 pounds (65%) and is 3 feet 1 3/4 inches tall (92%).  As usual she is our tall and skinny beauty.  

She is growing amazing.  Her English is improving everyday.  ( I still think she talks in code so she doesn't get in to trouble) She dresses, undresses, puts on her own shoes, brushes her own teeth, and helps herself to snacks.  She is still obsessed with...well anything....Scooby Doo, Princesses (specifically Ariel), Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Vegas Bear, and all of her friends.  She wakes up most mornings asking for Aunt Mary, Charlie, Kennedy and Rae Rae, or Tucson.  Usually in that order.  She loves going out on the ranch and helping her Daddy with feeding and cleaning.  She is still refusing to go potty.  She knows quite well what she SHOULD be doing but doesn't want to so she simply doesn't.  =)  She is the most amazing big sister!  She is so helpful and caring to Ellie Jo, but at the same time has plenty of fights over toys etc. with her too.  She can count to 10 when she wants to(this is very rare) and knows most of her colors, but doesn't always recognize them right away, mostly due to her favorite color being green.....this makes everything GREEN! =)  Her favorite things to do lately are read books, watch her shows, and color.  She is huge into coloring.  Lately she draws shapes and tries so very hard to color inside the lines of the shapes.  I do believe we may have a little artist on our hands.

We are still amazed that we are the parents of this little 3 year old being, and love her sooo very much!

Happy Easter!!!

Picture overload ahead!  We started our Easter Sunday off with a yummy pancake breakfast with Grandpa and Grandma Robertson followed by an egg hunt, and Easter Bunny Baskets.

 Then we headed over to Aunt Mary's house.  The girl's were spoiled with another Easter Egg hunt.  

 We moved on to coloring Easter Eggs. The girls were in heaven, we finished off the night with a delicious dinner. 

Note: The eggs above were our little families....the really neat multi colored ones were not mine and Alex's! =)

Baking with my girls!

Bugaboos Turns 3!!!

This year for our sweet little ones 3rd birthday we decided to host her "friend" party on Saturday April 12.  We did throw a little family party on her actual birthday and also celebrated her Aunt Mary's Birthday, which is 2 days before Sophie's.

Our Birthday Girl started her day off with opening up a couple of presents.

 She LOVED her apron and cake/frosting mix.  She tried to get to use those items the next few days.  She even got out all of our needs to make them, hand mixer, bowl, cupcake pan.  Sadly I wouldn't let her make them. =(

 We did a quick little photo shoot of our 3 year old on her birthday!

 Of course, Miss Gingaroos had to get in the mix.

 The early morning fun tuckered our birthday girl out...this actually turned out to be a much needed pre-party nap.

 That evening Mary, Charlie, Grandma Fran, and Grandpa Bongo came over for a party.  Miss Gingaroos just loves having her picture taken.

 This was our birthday girl's cake.  It WAS the most delicious cake ever!

 Out little cheeser again.

 Bugs got spoiled with a couple of books and some $$ for her piggy bank.

  Bright and early Friday morning(day before "friend" party) I started up Sophie's Birthday Cupcakes.  Both girls were still sleeping.  Just as I went to turn on the mixer I heard a little foot stomp and "hey...what do?"!  Haha I was in so much trouble for started cupcakes with out my big girl.  She hurry and got her apron on and joined in on the baking, well she only lasted 5 minutes maybe.

We got her Scooby Doo cupcakes all ready and started getting our normal routine for them morning when my parents arrived at our house for a quick weekend trip.  WE were sooo SURPRISED and I couldn't stop grinning all weekend because two sisters, Stephanie and Tiffany, and Stephanie's kiddos Brooke, Callie Jo, and Bowdee had snuck in my folks rig and showed up un-announced.  It was the best surprise of the weekend.  I was in heaven with my folks and sisters and Sophie and Ellie had the best weekend running around with the Utah cousins.  

 Party day arrived and I couldn't have been more happy.  I am not too creative so thank you pinterest!  Sophie is sooo obsessed with Scooby Doo so we went with a Scooby Doo theme!  

 We ate pizza, veggies, and birthday cupcakes.  I think everyone was satisfied!

 It was so windy that even with Kacie's ( 1 of our Ranch Girls) help we couldn't get the candle lit...so we had to just pretend that Bug's got to blow our her candle! =)

 We made the cutest tie dyed cupcakes with a Scooby Doo Fondant name tag on them...but I, for whatever reason, didn't snap a picture of them. =(

 Sophie Bug's was sooo spoiled by everyone with gifts!  She was one happy girl!

 Her final surprise was from her Auntie Mary...spoiled little girl got this beautiful yellow Mini Cooper!  She did and will have a blast with that thing....hopefully her driving skills improve tho! 

We all were so tuckered out by the end of the day.  I wanted to get a picture of all the cousins and their slumber party.....but that didn't happen.  But, we did snap one of these two sisters just a snuggling!  Stephanie said we'd better document the sweet moment of them not fighting! =)

It was an amazing weekend!  Alex and I have the best families and our girls couldn't be more spoiled by all of them!

I am still trying to cope with the fact that my big girl is 3!
