And another one turns three. It's official - I no longer have any babies. Big tall kids have come and taken their place.
It's ok, though. We're not here to talk about me. Not today, at least. Today is for her:
And how she fits so well into this:
And this, I just can't get enough of:
She says or does something that surprises me every day. She hates hot dogs, loves yogurt, loves Mickey Mouse and Aladdin and kitty cats and horses and anything resembling a princess. She's just like me in the morning - she hates waking up. We can hear her at 10:30 at night, singing to herself and reading in her bedroom, her favorite lamp on. She wants to put on her own pull-ups, which she almost doesn't need anymore. She's also stubborn as hell about anything she doesn't want to do just quite yet.
She likes to pull her leggings up above her knees. She gets mad if you try to fix them.
She doesn't snuggle much - not like her brother - but when she does, it's so worth it. She kicks in her sleep, steals the covers, bosses us around like she was born to it. She wobbles her way around the house in Mommy's heels whenever she can get her hands on them. When she decides it's time to be a kitty cat, she throws herself into it, licking and all.
She runs up to me, throws her arms around my leg, asks me to pick her up. I do, and get a quick, strong hug as payment. I try to prolong the moment and steal as many kisses as I can. She obliges me one, then dodges me artfully, demanding "Let me down. Let me go." I do, while thinking, "Not quite yet, little angel."

Happy third birthday, Mason Angelina. Mommy's having fun watching you just be so... so MUCH. I don't think I have to worry about you always knowing how much you're loved. And unlikely as it is, if anyone else forgets, you'll be sure to remind them.
Brilliant. And welcome back!

When I think back on the years we all hung out together, having fun...I always knew you and Marc would make beautiful babies.
Happy Birthday Mason - I am trying to figure out where you get your stubborn streak. Hmmm..

That is one good looking man you got there. No wonder the kids are so beautiful.

I opine that to receive the personal loans from creditors you should present a great motivation. Nevertheless, one time I have got a financial loan, because I wanted to buy a bike.

People deserve wealthy life time and loans or auto loan would make it better. Just because people's freedom relies on money state.

Wanted to see it from the first trailer, the second red band “hit girl” trailer made me anxious to see it and now this third trailer has made me need to see it.
Very cute! I LOVE the color, too.
