Happy 3rd birthday Alex!

Our baby turned 3 today, can you believe it?!
Being a Sunday, we had her party this morning. As in past years, she shared her birthday party with her friend Isla -- who is only a few days younger than her. The party was at a playplace in the Beaches -- and for 2 hours, the kids ran around, played with everything, ate a little bit of food, and polished off cake.

So she got out her necklace, a ring and her Minnie ears hairband. We wouldn't let her wear the Minnie ears to the playplace, so a picture before we left was our compromise.

The playplace we were at this year did face painting, so Alex spent the party -- and the rest of the day -- with her face painted as a bunny.

I made cupcakes for her this year -- each one in the shape of a Mickey Mouse or a Minnie Mouse:
