HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY BIG GIRL!

It’s so hard for me to believe that my baby big girl is three!  From the second we knew she was coming, she had our hearts and that loves just continues to grow.  Evie is super sweet, but super stubborn.  I see so much of myself in her at times and more than once I’ve felt the need to call my parents up and say “How in the world did you deal with me?!”  Three is not an easy age, but it is a pretty amazing one.  She is learning and growing so quickly.  She asking questions about the world and learning how to work out situations for herself.  She fully potty-trained now and we are about to start letting her go to bed without a pull-up.  She wakes up completely dry and we told her that once she used up all of the Pull-ups, we wouldn’t buy anymore and she could be a full-fledged big girl at night.  I have to admit, I’m a little bit wary about what the morning could bring, but I think we can trust her.  If she has an accident, we’ll deal with it.
Evelyn is an extremely verbal, expressive child.  She talks almost non-stop and picks up words and phrases quickly.  She’s started using phrases like “you’re freaking me out” and “are you kidding me?”.  She also started rolling her eyes when she annoyed or exasperated with us.  I have turn away because it’s kind of funny, but it is definitely not a behavior we encourage or allow.  Evelyn loves to sing and dance and she can really get into a song with someone hands her a microphone.  She closes her eyes, sways to the beat and really belts out the tune with a lot of emotion.  Evie has always been sensitive.  She gets her feelings hurt easily and is prone to pouting.  But she has huge, caring heart and hates to see anyone hurt or crying.  She adores her little brother and is usually absolutely wonderful with him.

Evie is our smart, caring, funny, sensitive, temperamental, stubbornly amazing little girl and we love her!

Happy 3rd Birthday Sweets!
