Nataleigh's 3!!

Nataleigh's 3rd Birthday was on a Friday (Daddy's day off!) so we got to celebrate all day together as a family!  It began with her fav-pancakes, opening her present from us and Birthday cards she got in the mail....she woke up to her favorite tunes of Dora's Birthday.  Nataleigh and mommy then went to the library (another favorite of hers where she can check out all of the signing time library :) and books) and then to the store.  Her lunch was grilled cheese made into the shape of a butterfly.  While they napped we went across the street and met our new neighbors (yay for new friends!!).  We got out the kiddie pool and the girls played til their hearts content, had sketti (leftover from the night before when we had our friends, the Jones's over for dinner) and then treated Nataleigh to some of Cleveland's best ice cream, Mitchells!!!
pancakes-not our original recipe-mommy forgot to get some ingredients but we improvised!
Happy Birthday sweet Nataleigh

such a girly girl-pink and a dress (she would wear one everyday if she could!)

 The next day was her party which we had at a local park (since they are tearing up our street and it's a mess to park on it-and what 3 year old wouldn't their party in the park?!)  :)  Cousin Bryan surprised us as he came with PaPaw, GG and Grandpa Great! :)  We had a blast and of course, it was a Dora party!
It's a Party!!!

The sweets table (complete with choc. chip pudding cookies per Nat's request)

Love to watch the sweet girls playing together
