The fun thing about turning three is that it seems to be the first year my kids seem to "get" their birthday enough that they have a specific idea in their head about what they want to do...yet, it seems to be limited to something simple. Slugger wanted a "yellow" birthday, Sparkle wanted a cake/cupcakes. Sugar was initially determined to have a "Hawkgirl" party (from the Justice league). But, I just couldn't pull off this obscure party without a lot more work than I had time for this season. So...thankfully, a three-year-old is also easily influenced. A trip to the party store quickly changed her mind...and a Curious George party emerged. Sugar had three little three-year-old (-ish) friends join her along with family and some older siblings. A little crazy...but Birthday Girl was happy...so I am too.
Monkey cupcakes...easy, but a big hit.
I'm reading, "Curious George and the Birthday Surprise". Apparently, I am very concerned about George. Truly a deep and moving book.
Blowing out the candles...
It was all very exciting...

What adorable cupcakes! I can tell you are a wonderful mom.
Love the cupcakes! We were so close to landing on Sugar's birthday with our little girl. Three-years-old is big stuff. Happy Birthday!
Very cute cupcakes! We had a Curious George party last year--banana splits! It's Superman for us today--we'll have to get my J and Sugar together sometime--3 is great!
Love the cupcakes! I can't believe Sugar is 3.
We tried to send you a Christmas card but I apparently have an old address for you guys. Could you e-mail me your new address?
