because you didn't know enough about us...: Who's 3? Lola!!

Hard to believe it, but 3 years have passed with the awesome Lolabug in our world. For her special day, she got to pre-game with a Friday party at school, complete with cupcakes, balloons, gifts, and some movie time. She loved being the birthday girl, and in her mother's tradition, was able to extend the fun for several days.

On Saturday (her actual birthday), she started out with a special birthday meal at Fat City, where she and Ted are Saturday morning regulars. Then a birthday muffin at the coffee shop, then we headed to OMSI. Once home, the first round of presents began and Lola was liking being birthday girl even more! We split gifts into a couple of shifts (there's a lot of love out there for this girl!), and headed to the park for more birthday play. Then she got her own cakelet at Baker and Spice, followed by birthday dinner and even more presents!

On Sunday, we met up with her good buddy Lila for a playdate that sadly ended in injury, but was still a fun time, and now a great story for Lola to tell as she grows up ("I fell off the big red slide. Mommy saw me in the air. I was not careful."). But even fractured, she had a good time the rest of the day.

There are no words for how much we love this little but big three year old person. I have checked her all over for babiness and find that very little remains. But there's plenty of Lolaness. Which is pretty rad.

Happy Birthday sweet girl!
