Becoming 3 in their minds meant they are now officially 'big girls' Don't worry, I've used that A LOT to convince them to do something, eat something, etc.
I made them blueberry muffins that morning for breakfast which they just thought was a cupcake anyways. Then they were so excited to see their presents all wrapped in each of their favorite colors Aria (red) Siena (pink) And it just so happened they were getting 3 presents on the day they turned 3. They didn't realize there was a 4th present I didn't wrap. We got them new bicycles with training wheels.
We took them to a flat parking lot and let them ride around. It's taken them a little while to learn to start, stop, keep peddling, etc. but they finally have the hang of it. And since we've had such nice weather since their birthday we take a loop around the neighborhood almost every night after dinner.
We met my mom and Jennifer for lunch that day since it was also Jennifer's birthday and they got Doc McStuffins stuff from Jennifer which they love. The Sunday before we also had their family birthday party and my parents gave them Anna and Elsa dolls from Frozen which they are also obsessed with.
That night we took their scooters and went to Classic Skate and had pizza. It was just our little family and it was a fun way to celebrate. They loved riding their scooters around and did better then I thought they would.
For about 2 weeks after, almost every morning when I would go into their room they would say 'Mom, I had a good birthday.' Then it turned into 'Mom, it's my birthday, I'm 4!' Yeah nice try. They have a long ways to wait until they turn 4 but it's safe to say they take their birthday as one of the best holidays yet, they must take after me, cuz this isn't a trait they get from their dad!
