Happy Birthday, Emma!

Yesterday was Emma's 3rd birthday! We had so much fun, and it was such a special day because Dan took the day off to spend it with us. We started the day with pancakes and syrup, watched Emma's new Veggie Tales movie, and then the fun really began!

Daddy took Emma outside to blow some bubbles and feed the ducks. One duck just hatched NINE ducklings. Talk about a busy Mommy!

After that fun, we had lunch and headed out to the mall. Emma played on the "Big Frog" (as she likes to call it), and then we went to Barnes and Noble where Emma played with the trains and the horsies.


We stopped by Toys 'R' Us for more fun with bouncy balls and Big Wheels. Little does Emma know, she is NEVER getting one of those!

Then on to Target. We got Emma some knock-off Crocs and some new socks, and then we stopped by the food court to eat some popcorn.

Our last stop of the day was a place where Dan and Emma have never been: Chuck E. Cheese. I think once a year is enough of that place! We had pizza, Dan and Emma played games, and then they had some chocolate cake. Emma was so exhausted that she fell asleep on the way home and didn't get out of bed until 8:00 a.m.


What a fun day! And today started off with a 3-year checkup, where the doctor told us that she is a healthy, growing three-year-old. Now we're going to save up all of our energy for her 4th birthday...

Happy birthday Emma! Don't they just grow up too fast??

I did a google search on free blog templates and came across that one. I don't even remember the site.
