We have officially had a kid during our marriage longer than not having a kid. That's a really weird thought. Ellie is now three, and I can't believe it. We sure do love her. She's the perfect mix of sugar and spice, and keeps us on our toes. I asked Ellie what she wanted for her birthday and she said balloons, pink cake, and presents. We did our best to deliver.
On the first day of Ellie's birthday weekend we had some friends over to celebrate. We ate pizza and doughnuts and played bingo. It was so great to have everyone over and catch up. Ellie loved having her friends over and played hard.
On day two of Ellie's birthday weekend we had family over to celebrate. We ate hamburgers and French fries with pink cake on the side. Ellie's Uncle Jake and Aunt Zaira brought balloons, which Ellie was thrilled about. We love having family over and always decide that we should do it more often (we are not very good at following through though).
On Ellie's actual birthday she opened her presents first thing in the morning. When Jeremy got home from work we asked her what she wanted for dinner. She said she wanted beans, so off to Costa Vida we went. After dinner we asked Ellie what she wanted to do, and she responded with "the animal store." Off to Cabelas we went.
I've mentioned this before, but we love Cabelas. It is the best free entertainment. Ellie loves walking around looking at the fish and animals. The fudge samples upstairs don't hurt, and the store is usually pretty empty unless you go on Saturday. Needless to say, our girl has great taste. Happy birthday sweet Ellie!
