And this is Madie

my big 3 year old!


We went out for ice cream first, but all she wanted for her third birthday was a pink princess bike.

And that's what she got. She LOVES it!

I just love the way she looks at her feet to make sure she's doing it right. Funny.


We raised Jared training wheels the same day. A lot. He got scared but tried really hard. But as you can see by Nathan's hand on Jared's neck, he needed help. A lot of help. So we put them back down.

In the mean time Madie was as happy as a clam on her new pink princess bike. She even changed into that shirt to match it.


And Nathan sat on the curb looking extra scrumptious with that cutie pie little baby in his arms. Makes me want to have ten more with him. Did I just say that? Don't let him know that.


When Madie got tired of trying to figure out the peddles she'd just walk her bike around for a bit...


...while Nathan sat on the sidelines basking in baby glow...


...and watching Jared smile big with relief that we put his training wheels back down.


All in all it was a very happy third birthday for Madie.
