Our BABY is three years old.
Three years??!
Three years ago she was Baby Annie and now she is all full of sass and opinions.
Yesterday when I instructed her to go sit in time-out she told me "to never ever say that to her again"...?!?
Lord, help us.
We celebrated a few days early on Wednesday because I had the day off from school and we wanted to surprise Annie by taking her to see a matinee performance of "Annie" on Broadway (it's her favorite show, of course). I wish I had video taped her reaction when we told her- she gave Jamie and I the biggest hugs and said thank you over and over. Such a sweet girl!
On Wednesday we had cake and presents for her, too.
|
I attempted to make cake pops for her because she LOVES cake pops. They weren't so pretty, but they tasted great. She ate 7 of them...!! And I let her. |
|
Audrie was SO sweet- she made this crown for Annie at school. |
|
It's hard to see in this picture but we got Annie the MOST ridiculously amazing pair of princess high heels that no child should own. She loves them! |
|
And a new princess dress to live in all day every day. |
|
Audrie picked out a Sophia doll for Annie. |

Then we headed downtown to see the performance. It was so wonderful! Annie smiled so huge from the moment it started. She really loved it. We all did. |
Also at this performance it happened to be the first performance featuring Jane Lynch (from Glee) as Miss Hannigan and "Mr. Schuester" was sitting a few rows behind us in the audience. It was pretty cool.
|
I attempted to get a photo of the Four of Us. |
|
Day three and she is STILL wearing the dress. Love her. |
Here is a video of Annie talking all about her favorite things...
And I know this next video is lengthy, but if you have time to take a trip down Annie Memory Lane then here you go....!
