Three Beautiful Years

My sweet Felicity Love turned three years old on December 7th.  I will never be able to understand how time can move so quickly.  I have been watching family videos of her growing up and it is so hard to wrap my mind around how big she has gotten!  I don't even know how it happened!!!
 
What I do know is that she is an absolute joy!  I love having a daughter, and having one as spunky as her keeps things interesting! :)  She is incredibly dramatic, very gently and kind hearted, super silly, she loves to dance and makes the funniest faces while doing so, and she is such a girly girl.  She is always wanting me to paint her nails and do her hair and change dresses like 4 times a day.  The other day I came downstairs and found her naked on the couch (I had already randomly found her naked two other time that day)  Exascerbated I said, "Felicity Patricia, why are you naked again??"  "Cause, Mom, I just don't like wearing clothes!"  Oh, great!  She's going to have to get over that one :)
It is hard having her birthday in December because it is just such a crazy time of year.  I keep telling Cole that maybe one day we can convince her to celebrate her birthday with friends on her half birthday!  It would definitely make my life easier!
 
We tried to keep it really low key and I just asked if there were any girlfriends that she would want to invite over for a "Frozen" birthday party.  She said her friend Autumn, and her cousins Gemma, Addie, and Bella.  A few of the girls brothers came along as well to keep Tavian entertained :)  The girls were adorable in their princess gowns.  We had a little dance party and then let them play in the bouncy house in the basement.  It was really more of a glorified play date but Felicity got to have special princess time with her girlfriends and I dont' think she could have asked for more!
I can't believe my sweet baby is growing up.  She is so sweet and always tells me, "I'll always be your friend, Mom!"  It melts my heart and I pray to God that is always the case!!

A random funny story:  She loves the movie Frozen (obviously) but she has surprised me lately because she has started quoting the movie.  A daughter after my own heart, that's for sure, since if you know me you know I love to quote lines from movies!  But it cracks me up.  She walked into my bathroom and out of nowhere said, "Oh hey mom, we were just talking about you.  All good things, all good things".  Ha!  And then, a few days ago I heard her saying, "ice is my life."  I love that her silly personality meshes so well with my own.  I have a feeling we have years of laughter ahead of us!!!

My pretty Princess Elsa!  (Thank you to cousin Teagan for letting her borrow this dress)
