Our 3 yr old fairy princess!

I can't believe our beautiful Alyssa is already 3 yrs old. She is such a blessing in our lives! This past year has been incredible. She is such a girly girl at times but also knows how to be tough.

She still loves books. Loves horses and ponies and dogs. Learned to love candy a lot. Yes, I know, what kid doesn't like candy, but she really didn't care about it much before. She can dribble a soccer ball forever while saying, "I playing soccer","pass it to mami/daddy". Likes any sport that includes a ball. Enjoys bumble bees and spiders, weird I know. She really got into matching colors. Has the coolest imagination. Can entertain herself for a really long time. Loves to turn our keyboard music on really loud while dancing and running around the living room. Is actually a really big talker just not in public. Says "yeah" after every question and doesn't stop saying "yeah" until you answer. Is getting so brave and will jump off of many things (she is not much of a daredevil). Her favorite is the couch, oh and jumping on daddy.

Enjoy these pictures of her that were taken at the beginning of September. She's our girl!
She really got into tutus and fairies and magic wands. She loves to get her nails painted. Her favorite colors are pink and purple but loves green on her finger nails, I don't know why.
Her laugh is contagious! She laughs like its the funniest thing ever. She doesn't get the hiccups as often anymore when she's laughing really hard. Before every time she laughed really hard it was sure thing the hiccups would follow.
She is such a detailed person and can remember everything even from days or weeks ago.
Can be very silly. But she is still very sweet most of the time. Her feisty side does like to make an appearance at times.
Loves to sing and listen to music. Its amazing that she learns songs so quickly.
Can reason with you most of the time.
Is obsessed with mami or daddy's ear lobes. It's like a comfort thing for her to touch them.
Enjoys having tea parties and playing with play dough.
Alyssa is very careful about doing things. She still has her mellow personality. She gives the best hugs and kisses! I love how she squeezes me tight when she hugs and how she smacks kisses on my face.
She loves to make us laugh and says, "that's silly".
Loves the outdoors. Can spend hours in our backyard; even after it gets dark. She turns the back light switch on and when daddy says, "you need to come in now, it's dark" she points at the light and says, "no daddy, there's still light".
Loves to cuddle and be held.
Learned to blow her own bubbles, but can go through half a bubble container in one use.
She couldn't be more perfect for our family!! She's Alyssa!!
If there is anything about Alyssa you'd like to share, oh please do. I love to hear what others see in her or how they view her personality :) Sometimes as the parents we get so use to certain things that we can miss things in our children. I hope I learn not to though!

I love all of your family pictures. I contacted Stephanie, but she was completely booked up for the rest of the year!
Alyssa is soooo cute. And she is such a good girl. She's so easy-going.
We need to get together.
How are you feeling?
