Kenley turns 3....

WOW!! I can't believe my BABY is 3!!! Even though she acts like she's 5, I still think of her as the baby!
This little girl is so fun and has SO much personality! We are constantly laughing at all the silly things she does!
Her Birthday was on a Sunday so we decided to just have family over. Well, Meegies good friend/future husband Kai stopped by for a few minutes to give her a present! =)
Having a birthday this close to Christmas stinks!! We hurried and took down Christmas and got all set up for her Birthday!
I wanted to take some pictures of her just being a 3 year old but all she wanted to do was feed her baby! She is such a good little mommy!
The next three pictures are of her being a pirate!
The only way she would put down the baby so I could take some pictures of just her is if I took some of her baby! Haha! She was even telling her baby to "say cheese!"
She kept her promise and let me take one shot without the baby!
Such a goofball!
The cake....

Our ward did a service auction for relief society that was so much fun! I saved all my points so I could bid on cake made by a lady in our ward! Luckily for me they waited until the end to auction it off and I GOT IT!!! We always just buy a cake from Costco or something lame like that so I was super excited to have her make a cute cake for Kenley's birthday! I NEVER would have imagined it to be this cute though! I was dying! We almost didn't eat it cause how do you cut into something this cute? I may or may not have taken more pictures of the cake than I did of the birthday girl! ;) 
(don't worry, I won't post them all)
 I LOVE this picture!
 
She was so excited she just dug right in! No fork needed I guess!
Time for presents! Apparently we should have had cake after presents! Oh well, just don't mind her cake covered shirt!
 She loved all of her presents so much! After riding her bike around the kitchen for a while, she played with her new princess castle for the rest of the night! Girls are so fun aren't they?
She had a great Birthday and is excited to be 3!  She asked me the next day if she was 3 and when I told her yes she said..."I can't believe it!"
Turning 3 at the end of the year also means that she is now a sunbeam!!! How can she be a sunbeam when she just barely started going to nursery on her own! (seriously, she went like 5 times)
I was a little worried that she wouldn't go but even though she was a little nervous at first she went and stayed the whole time! YAY! She's even excited to go back!! 

We just love this crazy little girl so much and I can't imagine our lives without her!
