The Sweetest 3 Year Old

Cora turned 3 years old today! We celebrated with lots of birthday phone calls, balloons and streamers decorating Cora's bedroom door and booster seat, a simple birthday party with a few of her friends, measuring how tall she is now, and, of course, birthday cake! Tomorrow we get to celebrate with Grandma and Grandpa Bierma.

Cora helped make the cake yesterday.


Birthday party activity: decorating birthday hats


Displaying their works of art.


Ring around the Rosie is a big hit with 3-year-olds.


So is "Limbo"!


And what would a party be with out some cake and the "Happy Birthday" song?


(Oops.) Cora is 37.5 inches tall.


Happy Birthday to my sweetest little girl. You bring a joyful song to our hearts that will always be there. Knowing you makes our world a little brighter. I can't wait to see what this next year brings for you, Cora, my pumpkin pie. We love you so much!
