Happy Birthday, Three Year Old!

And once again, we have a birthday here at my blog... Annelie Cecelia, my itsy bitsy newborn baby, is three today!

Its funny, blogging is a regular part of my life now, just daily routine... but when the years go by and I realize that not too long ago, I was blogging about Annelie's second birthday, and a little bit before that, I was blogging about her first birthday, it wows me how quickly the time has passed.

The last three years with Annelie have been... interesting. She's a force to be reckoned with, a tornado-like flurry of energy, with terrible impulse control and enormous amounts of love and affection.

And now she's three. I'd love for her to grow out of her high-energy, Queen of Destruction self... but when I look back at the memories of all that she has done, it just makes me laugh. The last three years have been a wild ride, and I'm pretty darned sure, the rest of Annelie's life will be the same.

Here's a little trip down memory lane...
a few of Annelie's posts (the links are below each photo):








Annelie eats dog food...


Annelie is a twerp...


Annelie starts her Terrible Twos very, very early...

Okay, I could go on for about 2.5 years, but I'll stop now...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ANNELIE!

And thanks to all of you, folks, for sharing our lives with us!

xoxo,

Happy Birthday to the three year young girl :-) Time does fly and I'm glad you have those pictures and blog journals that preserve those memories. This reminds me that I really have to get the scrapbooking going.

Happy Birthday Annelie!! Confound it...I though have had Amelia make her a birthday card :( Maybe we still will...with an apology for it being late!

Just think, by the time she hits five you'll be ready for the Funny Farm

Geez, I just re-read that. What the hell was I trying to say??? Maybe that I "SHOULD have". Maybe I "should have" gotten more sleep last night!
