always be my baby

That's right...
This beautiful girl is 3! I am amazed at how time flies.

PhotobucketAria:
She loves sleeping beauty and likes to pretend to prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and fall asleep. Dad usually gets to be the prince. * Loves helping Daddy make muffins or pancakes. * Must ride Daddy's back upstairs when Daddy goes up to change his clothes. * Loves to play tea party, kitchen and with her doll house. * Got a new set of Sleeping Beauty paper dolls that she loves. * Avid climber... and tumbler... on everything! * Can now dress herself most the time, unless it's hard to get it over her head. * Rarely has accidents. * Loves to go up in her tower outside. * Loves to watercolor. * Adores Jefferson. * Plays computer games on sesame street.org as well as the basic ones that come with the computer. * Loves Daddy's new iphone. * I ask her what her favorite food is and she says... 'maybe carrots'.  apples, pizza, popsicles, milk, toast with jam, pb and honey, cheese tortillas, ritz and wheat thins, bananas, tomatoes. But she says she just loves it with Daddy. * Likes to watch movies, read books, play uno, old maid, dominoes, and go fish. *loves getting the 'bugs' out of her teeth. *Loves to pretend that she's a door and she will block a passageway and we have to knock on her before we can pass. *Loves to pretend to be monsters. *Knows all abc's and their sounds. *Counts to 21. *Whenever she notices her tears on our shirts, or on her cheeks, she forgets why she's crying and starts laughing that she got us wet. *Loves to pick flowers outside our door and bring them to me. *Loves all things birthday. I love her. that's all I can say.

We just decided to have some family fun for her big day. I made her this dress-up dress for her birthday. She loves it.

She loves coming home and riding up the stairs with Daddy. Bad focus, but fun memory. And I just love the back lighting in this one.

Someone got a new bike! and is riding in style!

And I couldn't help but put his shot of Daddy and Jeff in there. I just love them both. Does Jeff's hair look kind of red to you? Also... we think he might have blue eyes. Which would be kinda weird because parents and all grandparents have brown/hazel. Possible... but weird.

Finally, we had a very happy Easter and colored eggs for the first time as a family. Aria loved it!

Aria's bike is awesome! I love the teeth on it! I need to tell you thank you for the comment you left on my comparing post. One thing especially, when you said what you do "doesn't have to be different from everybody else - just me". I'd been feeling pretty unoriginal because everything I do is either copied from or inspired by someone else, but it doesn't matter does it? Thank you so much!

To better suit my purposes, I have decided to make this more of a journal. That's what it is anyway, but I see no reason to allow random people to see it. I am going *private* Please leave your email if you are even a casual observer at the happenings in the Pettit household. You are welcome any time. The change will happen one month from today.
