Our little princess is 3 years old today! We celebrated yesterday with a trip to the zoo in Norfolk. And of course, since we forked over $30 for the tickets, Courtney was only interested in the stupid butterfly flappin' around. What a goober! In the butterfly picture she is wearing a dress with shamrocks that her Grandma Mitchell made :) I can tell she loved it because she wouldn't take it off for dinner and she dirtied it immediately. She received birthday boxes from both sets of grandparents on the same day this week; too bad she had to wait 4 days to open them! Poor little girl. She got puzzles, jewelry, dress up clothes (one of the outfits is doubly pictured above), books, stamps, and a feed me/change me baby boy doll. She is too much fun, and I am lucky to have had her these 3 years. She's now 1/6 of the way to graduating; they sure do grow up fast.
As a side note, I have for years had a weekend sugar problem. Devin too. So I am declaring to you all here and now, that for the next 4 weeks, I'm not going to let any sweets down this ol' hatch. I am actually really excited because during the week I feel so energetic, and then I feel sick all weekend long. Like that awful kind of sick where you know you'll be bent over a toilet. Anyway, TMI, but now you know, and I will let you know how I do!
