She's not a baby anymore cause she can talk...

Tess celebrated her 3rd birthday today. We also participated minimally. After church, she made sure to tell every single person we walked past that it was her birthday. She's going to be as bad as her aunt Kellie--who celebrates her birth week.

For her birthday, she asked for candles. So, I got her some fancy ones that have the flame the same color of the candle. She thinks that we celebrate birthdays just so we have an excuse to light a stick on fire and blow on it. She LOVES it! So here are some pictures of our humble birthday bash.

Waiting patiently for the candles to be lit:



A couple of pictures of her blowing/spitting the candles out:





She won't admit to it, but in a pitiful attempt to turn back time, Jaime is sending Tess to bed in clothes that fit a much younger child. Looks like Jaime is having a hard time coping with her widdle baby being 3.
