Yesterday morning I was remembering how long I had to wait that morning before they'd let me come in to the hospital. I was scheduled to have a c section but they'd had some emergency c's that morning that they had to handle first. I hadn't eaten since before midnight the night before and in true form of a women who's 9 million months pregnant by 7 am I was starving!! The nurse finally called and told us to come on and in a few short hours, Avery Kate had arrived!
I remember thinking she was just the most beautiful little thing. She had bright red lips that looked like we'd put lipstick on them and hair that was a little redish at the time (funny thinking about that now).
We've certainly had some ups and downs over the past three years but I would NOT trade even a second of it for anything. Michael and I are stronger now as parents then we were without Av. God sure knew what he was doing sending us this perfect creature when he did!
Well yesterday, that creature turned 3 and what a day we had! We started off at Sweet & Sassy in Southlake with a few sweet girlfirends. The girls had their nails painted and make up done and strutted their stuff on the adorable stage! After their pampering we went to lunch at The Cheesecake Factory. The girls all had a blast together! They ran all over the patio, played hide & seek and shared some yummy cheesecake!!
As if our day wasn't already awesome enough, we ended the night with a family party at Chuck E.Cheese. I wanted to do something else fun since cousin Adam wouldn't enjoy Sweet & Sassy with the girls :) It was his first visit to Chuck E. Cheese so you know he was in hog heaven!! He and Av had a blast and got good and tired out! My Mom, Dad & Ryan also came along and enjoyed the fun with us!
When we came home, we put Avery's new dollhouse together and let her stay up late and watch her new Minnie Mouse movie!!
We had such an eventful day and to think, we haven't even had her actual birthday party yet, ha ha!
