3

Well, my baby is 3. She does not appreciate it when I call her "baby"!
Last Saturday, I borrowed a chair from our neighbors front porch and took some pictures of the Little Miss. It was the same story: I didn't feel like the shoot was going well and finished, feeling discouraged. My strategy is to hit the shutter EVERY time her face turns in my direction. Fast forward to editing the pictures. I took 61 pics and there were only 10 that were too blurry to edit. I LOVED all of them. You might want to sit down. Giving you a play by play of 51 pictures could take a while.

Just kidding! I don't have time for that kind of post. LOL  And it is very possible, that I am the only one who doesn't think all of the pics look the same.

The most exciting gift:

I saw these wings online, with a tutorial, and asked my Mom if she thought Daisy needed them. About a week later, they were in the mail on their way to our house. Love ya  Mom!!!!!!!!!!!!

After presents, we moved on to cupcakes and singing.

We thoroughly enjoyed celebrating her!

She is just a doll, her personality SHINES through these pictures.

I love the wings, your mom did a fantastic job and I do believe she should start an ETSY store.

Daisy's appropriate reaction to the felt cupcakes totally made me grin. I know exactly how that feels when you buy your kid the PERFECT gift and NEED the right reaction. :)

Happy Birthday sweet girl!
