Happy 3rd Birthday McKennanator!

This beautiful Goldilocks turned three on Monday. Being the caboose of the weekend of birthday celebration, she sure felt special.

We started the morning with a trip to Krispie Creme (of course) - rainbow sprinkles, pink milk, and all. After we dropped Katie off at preschool, it was off to the mall for her birthday pictures. Boy did she love that spotlight. She was cute as can be, posing and smiling like a princess. She kept saying "I'm so good at this!" - and yes, she was. Apparently curly hair, a pink flower, and some glamor shots is enough to make a girl feel special.

This girl sure is special. She brings so much love + laughter into our home. She loves her family and is always concerned about how everyone feels. She is the first to offer a hug or kind words if someone is feeling sad. She is quick to say she's sorry.

She loves to laugh and loves to make others laugh. She does so easily with her goofy faces, silly voices, and contagious laugh. She loves to have fun and is so fun to be around.

She is our little performer. She is constantly singing. She picks up a tune faster than anyone I know and if she can't remember the words, she makes up her own. My favorite was her rendition of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer to the tune of We're Off to See the Wizard. "Ruuuuuu-dolph the red-nosed reindeer!" (go ahead, try it. It's hilarious). We were laughing for days. Actually, I'm still laughing about it now.

McKenna is such a joy in our family. She is our perfect Little Middle. She looks up to Katie and looks out for Brooke. We LOVE McKenna and are so thankful to have her in our family.
