3!!!

December 11, 2020

Houston, we have a 3 year old.

In lieu of Disney World

ALSO: despite the fact that most of the last year of her life was spent under COVID-influenced circumstances, I think she is having a great time.

She is happy, extremely verbal, spirited, focused, independent, determined, and loves to make messes. Her teachers call her Mini CEO. We call her Viva. Her presence has definitely added a layer of chaos, but she brings so much joy and fun to our family. She completes our crew, she is Our Last Baby and will be forever (even when she’s a high school student missing her siblings who have moved away).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY G!!!!

    Oh she is beautiful and you can see her spirit really shining! She looks happy. I think kids in this age group have truly forgotten anything about pre-pandemic life so that must help them. I hope she has a wonderful day.

    So sweet! I first started following you when you were pregnant with her. Does seem so long ago. Happy Birthday G!

    Oh, so cute! Makes me want to borrow a toddler for an afternoon, after a good nap of course 🙂 Happy Birthday!

    Happy birthday G! I have really loved hearing about her first three years of life. Quite the little lady – looking forward to seeing what’s to come.

    Happy Birthday to G. We are birthday twins! 🥳

    happy birthday! has been so wonderful and helpful to follow along, my second daughter is about 3 weeks younger than G (and my older daughter is an Annabel!) and I’ve been following since you were pregnant with G 🙂 We’re one kid behind though – waiting for “Our Last Baby” to arrive in about 2 months.

    Such a cutie! It does not at all seem that long ago that you were writing posts about whether or not to have a third. Happy Birthday G!
