She was 17 months old when this photo was taken – our lively, beautiful, firstborn…the one who changed our lives forever.
And now she is 3 (THREE!). She is chewing gum, riding bikes, chasing dreams.
Yesterday, she said: “When I am fifteen, I am going to drive our car – and you and daddy are going to ride in the back.”






Happy 3rd birthday to your little girl! :-)
It is amazing how quickly they grow!
She is adorable!
It really isn’t fair how quickly they grow up.

They grow so quickly, don’t they? What a sweetie!
Adorable!
Happy Birth(ing) Day to you both!
The things they say! So cute!
I actually remember making my dad ride in the backseat when I was learning to drive. I think he was so laid back about it that he stretched out and “slept.”
It will be here before you know it. Makes me a little sad.
Your daughters are seriously the most beautiful I have seen (but they have competition coming in May!)… have fun celebrating!
wow. times flies.
my kids have made comments about driving too. funny how they look forward to that….and at such a young age.
Awe. So cute.
Happy Birthday big sister!!!
Ha! my 4 y.o. still isn’t chewing gum. Lovely. But missing you in Houston at Mom 2.0.
They grow up so very quickly!
Both of your daughters are very adorable…..

aww! she’s so cute! 3 is a good age :)
Happy Birthday!
Does she really get to start driving at 15? Here it’s 16 and an older driver has to sit next to you for the first 8 months or so. Such fun to look forward to! I certainly would love to have my own chauffeur though…
My three-year-old niece is already practicing for when she gets to drive by calling out the speed limits and critizing whenever she thinks someone is going too fast. “Speeding’s pretty dangerous” she says. “Did you come to a full stop?” It’s funny but actually has improved the driving habits of some family members.
Gorgeous. Your girls always are! xo colleen
I love to hear from my 4 year old – “When I get big like you I am going to…” I tell her I want her to stay my 4 year old forever!
Cute! My 3 year old is talking the same way. This week she told me that when she is older & drives, that she is going to race me & listen to music. Ha!
And, she is also going to learn to drive a boat. And, I’ll get to just sit in the seat & ride along. Sounds nice to me. :)
Love the picture….you have beautiful girls!
It is just amazing how fast they change. She’ll be driving that car before you turn around. What a sweetie.
LOL, I love what your daughter says. She’s itching to be grown up–so sweet.
