She woke up this morning (in her big girl bed - because I moved her there in her sleep) and was all excited that she is no longer a baby, but a big girl now! The Birthday Fairy had come and decorated her room with streamers and balloons, which she LOVED!
And, she got to blow out a candle in her special birthday donut!
Then, we headed over to lunch at QDoba, her favorite, for rice and beans and realized that Build A Bear was just across the parking lot... she has never been before. LOVE this picture of my two big kids walking with their baby sister!
She picked out a Scruffy Puppy and really enjoyed getting to make him!
The air bath is the best part...
She loves the little house they put the stuffed animal in... she is such a cheeser though!
Then... over to the toy store... my big kids talked me into getting her an inflatable bounce house... this child is IN LOVE with bouncers. I know it will get alot of use. She jumped for two hours this afternoon... and Morgan and Grant took turns in there with her...
She and Scruffy the Puppy chilled out to read some books while we watched the Ky Derby tonight... this is truly her favorite thing to do... read books. She so carefully turns each page and talks as she recites what she remembers the words are to each story.
Does she look comfy or what?
This is happiness... true bliss!
Tonight, she fell asleep in the car after dinner at her choice "Wendy's" - yuck and then ice cream at my (er... her) favorite, Coldstone. So, she is once again in the big girl bed... I am so excited! More tomorrow as the family comes over to help her celebrate!

Happy, Happy Birthday to our Birthday Bug! I miss leaving comments...I better get back on the roll, times just seems to be flying by. Please know that I have kept you in my thoughts and prayers and continue to admire you for all you have to do. A full time job, teenagers, a toddler and an upkeep of a house. Geeze..Im tired just typing it. OH...I think I left out taking of the dog too! You are to be admired Sarah!...and I admire you! Keep up the good work.
Love and Hugs to all of you!
Happy Birthday Sophie Bug!!!
Sarah,
I love the picture of the big kids with Sophie. It is so cute. Hope she enjoys her Bouncy House and her new Big Girl Bed.
Just wanted to let you know that you are in my prayers as you are going through your struggles right now. Keep your head up and Him in your life.
In Him,
Kelly and Family
OH-MY-GOSH! That picture of her sitting in the chair with the book and "Scruffy" is too much! I adore how her little feet are crossed and her toes are all pedicured! She is so PRECIOUS!
Happy Birthday Bug! Hugs from far away!
Happy 3rd Birthday, Sophie-Bug!
It looks like you all had such a fun day celebrating your little bug! What a very special time.
I can not believe she is 3 years old! I think I first started following your Caringbridge site right after her 1st birthday - I still remember the video of her 1st steps!! :0) She is such a big girl - sleeping in her own bed and all. But she has only grown more beautiful!
Hope you all are having a fun party day - celebrating Sophie! How blessed she is to have such a wonderful family! Enjoy every minute . . .
Love & FROG . . .
Such a BEAUTIFUL birthday girl! I love the pictures!!!
It doesn't seem real that she is that old!!! It seemed like she was so much younger than the boys.
HaPpY BiRtHdAy sweet girl from your boyfriend Max! XOXO
I have been lurking on your site for some time and never written. I just have to say Sophia is beautiful. I know you feel blessed to be Sophia's mother but my Sophia is blessed as well. Your family is beautiful. Happy
3rd Birthday.
Happy Happy Happy Birthday Big Girl!
Annie would be sooo jealous that you have a jumpy castle IN your house (thank goodness my house is tooo small) if you lived closer we would be bouncing at your house ALL the time! You are precious!!!!!!
Looks like she had a very happy Birthday!! She is so beautiful! I love the picture of her with the big kids walking together!!
Please let me know how the big bed thing is working out! We are going to try that soon with J. We just bought him a nice bed and are hoping he will use it sometime soon :)
Happy Birthday Sophie!! I love that cute little skirt!
We bought the kids a bounce house too, and they love it. It gives them a workout, that's for sure.
