HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAILYN!

Today is our granddaughter's 3rd Birthday!  Wow!   It seems like yesterday when she was just a wee little one.

Cailyn is always a little "shy" when they first arrive at our house, but once inside, after giving Mimi and Grandpa hugs, she runs to give her doll, Bella, a big squeeze. Bella lives at our house.  Cailyn loves tea parties and "snacks".

Cailyn, at 8 months, showing us "how big, so big" she is!  When Cailyn comes to visit, she enjoys pretending with play food, lots of swinging and sandbox time, plus using stickers and markers on paper.

Her first taste of cake on her 1st birthday has resulted in a real "love" of cake, cookies and vanilla ice cream.

By the time Cailyn celebrated her 2nd birthday, there was a new little guy in the family.  Cailyn is learning to be a wonderful "big sister" to her brother.

Cailyn's loves shoes (what a girl!), and is learning to leave barretts and ribbons in her hair.  Over the past few months, Cailyn has practiced jumping and perfected her somersault! Cailyn is always delighted when Aunt Alissa and Aunt Jennifer are here to play (& Uncle Alan too)!!

Cailyn loves playing with her shopping cart and farm.  She recites her ABC's verbally and in sign language...and is teaching Mimi and Grandpa sign language too! ;-)  She loves singing and I believe her favorite song is "Frosty the Snowman".  I love hearing her little voice!

Cailyn, HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY, sweetie!  We can't wait until we can celebrate with you at your party on Saturday!  We love you!!
