Giggling Girls: Happy 3rd Birthday Abigail!

Three years ago today I went to my scheduled prenatal check-up. Little did I know that while at that appointment my doctor would discover I was 5 cm dilated and in labor (and to top it off, Abigail was born on her due date - right on time!)! My doctor said that was only the second time in her career she found a patient to be in labor during a routine check-up! Oh the memories... How can that be three years ago? Where has the time gone? How can our little Abigail Evangelyn be 3 already?!!

Well, she is 3 and what a fun 3 years we've had! We've done some "celebrating" these past couple of days as you'll see in the following pictures:

This was right after I had finished her Curious George (or as she would say, "Curious Gorge") cake. I wanted to get a picture before any of my little monkeys got too curious!

On Friday the girls and I met my mom, sister-in-law Susann, and her three girls, Mikayla (8), Serena (5), and Lydia (1 - she's only one month younger than Rebecca!) at a mall. This mall has an indoor 2 level carousel! Mom treated the girls to a birthday ride - they loved it! Well, all but Rebebcca. She cried the entire ride after she was (accidentally!) put face to face with a horse! Although, she wasn't the only one who didn't like the horses. Abigail (another one of my daughters, of course) didn't want to be on a horse either. She was more than happy to ride in the sleigh thing. Oh well, it was still a fun treat!

Birthday girl

This was today. We stopped for lunch at Sonic before heading to our birthday destination. Daniel has been itching to get to a Sonic ever since they finally appeared in Minnesota! I guess there were a few by his college in Florida and he loves their real juice lime slushes. This is like an "old time" drive-in restaurant where you order from your car and then eat in your car. The guy even brought our food out to us on rollerblades (but the food was in a bag and not on a tray - the temp outside was around 34 degrees!). If you've never been to a Sonic, GO! It's very, very good!!

This was our birthday destination. A huge indoor playground! They loved it! They even had an area for kids 3 and under. Being it was Saturday, it was a little more crowded than we would have liked. BUT, the girls didn't seem to mind at all.
