What?? Sophie's Three??


So, I'm a little behind. Yes, it's true, Sophie's birthday was November 29th, and yes it's December 14th, but hey, I've been trying to get ready for Christmas after all.
Sophie had a great birthday with not one, but two celebrations. My brother and his family were in town for Thanksgiving so we first celebrated at my mom's the night before her birthday. Sunday was her actual birthday, so we had a little celebration at home, with just the five of us. That means I made not one, but two cakes! (for those of you who know me well, know that baking is NOT my thing, so for me to make 2 cakes in as many days is quite something!)
First try blowing out her candles...
...and a second try...
...and finally got it on the third try! Almost singed her eyebrows, but hey, she got em all!
Sophie is such a joy to have in our family. I love this little girl so much! She has such a sweet disposition and funny little quirks. I can't imagine our family without her. Happy Birthday sweet Sophie and thanks for choosing to come to our family! We love you!
p.s. Notice the ancient highchair Sophie is sitting in. That was not only mine, but my three older siblings' as well!!

oops, I just deleted my comment. I should't push buttons so quickly. Anyway, I just said Happy Birthday Soph, I can't believe she is already 3!

Yeah for Sophie being three! She is getting so big and is so much fun.

Can't imagine your family without her either.

Happy, happy birthday, Miss Sophie!

And PS, my phone full-on died during our conversation today - and is still not working - no phone calls, no texts, nada. I hate my life.

I had no idea her b-day was on the 14th, Lawyers is on the 19th, we need to have a "birthdays during December" talk. That high chair is hilarious, looks like you guys had a good time!

Did I mention that her hair and her dress are equally as darling as she is in that top picture!?
