Mirren's Real 3 Year Old Birthday

 The best parts of Mirren's birthday: Waffles, sausages and scrambled eggs for dinner. (Her choice)
  It was still warm enough outside that I encouraged the girls to go outside and play on the new patio
while I made dinner (and decorated for her party that she didn't know anything about. Also I
decorated and made her cake without her knowing. She loved all the surprises!!) We actually
celebrated a day early since the next day we would be at Grandma and Grandpa Bishop's house
for our once a month dinner with his family.


                                              The balloons were a hit! They are kind of Mirren's thing. :)


                                           This was Lochlan's reaction to the balloons. Ha ha!!

        Mirren got such fun presents. Her favorites are probably the things I picked
        up at the DI, so I think I've learned my lesson. Always check the DI
        for newer toys before purchasing full price ones. I think I spent $3 and would
       have easily spent 7 times that amount for those 2 toys. A singing tea pot
        and a Minnie Mouse cell phone that both had TONS of battery life in them!

      Where did 3 years go? Mirren, in true Mirren fashion, is taking her sweet time
       growing up and is such a sweet girl.
      She cares about everyone, but also likes to have fun and will
      carelessly hurt you in the name of fun at any moment. Ha ha!!
       She gives the best hugs, but could break your ribs if she loves you enough.
      She has so many talents, but she loves to sing. She has an amazing
      memory and as her personality continues to truly emerge, I am
      thrilled and touched by her sweetness and goodness. She is just as
       sensitive and tender as a rose, so her middle name suits her well.

      We love love love our Mirren girl. What a fun and happy change she has
                                      made in our family!!
