and then she turned 3

Jordan turned 3 on January 3rd (I'm a little behind, I know. )

Jordan asked for pizza for her birthday. no fancy cakes this year, she picked out cupcake liners and chocolate cupcakes and a purple star candle. We went to round table and brought grandma and grandpa along to celebrate.

 With her "birthday cake"

 singing Happy Birthday

 digging in..they were sooo sweet

 present time

 a few arcade games

 and then dancing our way to the car

 the cupcakes were a pinterest find. they were suppose to look like the DQ chocolate dipped icecream cones, I had to hurry the process because we decided to celebrate her birthday a day earlier. they were pretty good but the white meringue icing was REALLY sweet.

and after her birthday she started preschool!  she is so excited and she loves it.

funny Jordan story..

on Sunday we were at my parents (literally next door to our house) having a birthday dinner for my brother. We were all sitting around the table having dinner when Jordan said she had to go to the bathroom. at grandma's house she has to have a stool to turn the light on so Trent tells her go get the stool and go potty, then come back out.

about a minute later Trent laughs and gets up and goes to the sliding door where we see Jordan who is running back to our house to get her stool to come back to grandma's to turn the light on and go potty.

we all had a good laugh.
