Joshua and Elyssa are 3!


Joshua and Elyssa celebrated their 3rd Birthday! I can't believe we have survived the last 3 years. It has had its crazy times, but has definitely been worth it. Joshua and Elyssa have such strong personalities. I love the times when they play together and laugh at their own private jokes.

For their birthday, Joshua wanted blue cupcakes and Elyssa wanted pink cupcakes. Even at 3 years old they definitely know what they want and are pretty good at letting us know what it is.

Joshua talked for weeks before his birthday about wanting a train. He had a picture of a train set and would hold it all day and even sleep with it, so of course we had to get him a train set.

Elyssa wanted dress up clothes for her birthday. She got lots of fun dress up things and jewlery and even lip gloss. She loves to pose for the camera.

Well, we made it through the first 3 years. I am so excited to see how much Joshua and Elyssa will grow and learn in the next year.

What a fun evening with such very special 3 years old little ones. It is amazing to me how much they have changed since they came to Tucson. We love them so much and they are so much fun. Sunbeams beware!

Happy Birthday to 'the babies'
Wow! Time flies. It doesn't seem that long ago that I was coming over to watch David and Machella while you were heading off to the hospital.
Congrats on making it 3 years!
