Morgan is 3!

Our sweet girl is 3 today! I still remember the 10 hrs of labor and then the 1 hr and 45 mins of pushing. It was a very long day, but she was definitely worth it. Since I had school today, we started the preparations for the party yesterday.

We first needed to make the icing. Morgan's favorite part was taste-testing it. And then she wanted to get a picture of her white tongue.

We then needed to make the lemonade. As you can see, she still has remnants of the icing.

And then all the flowers for the cake. Phew!!

There's always time to take a break for a snack and a movie.

As soon as I got home from school, we got started on icing the cake. Morgan and Ethan kept eating the butter cream icing, which I wasn't sure how much of it I would need, so I pulled out the royal icing for them to eat. I obviously was not thinking clearly when I put a big tupperware container of icing in front of a 14 month old.

Morgan wanted to show her messy face, too.

Morgan's choice for dinner was pizza. She's been asking for pizza all week, and I kept telling her she had to wait until her birthday. She was so excited she finally was able to get her pizza.

Loving their pizza. Sorry for the blurry picture. For some reason the camera thought it needed to focus on the bags of dirt piled behind the kids.

The finished princess cake. Morgan kept saying, "Happy Morgan Birthday", so I figured it was perfect to write that on the cake. Plus, I didn't switch out the tip to a smaller one so "Happy Birthday" would not have fit on that row.

We had to inform her that it is much harder to blow out the candles with a sucker in your mouth.

I started to get a little worried that the princess' arm was going to melt, but Morgan got all the candles blown out.

I don't remember exactly what Aunt Kathy told Ethan he couldn't have, but he started throwing a huge fit. And I mean, rolling on the floor crying and kicking. So, Dustin pulls out his phone to "Gummy Bears", and Ethan curled right up to him to watch. The power of the "Gummy Bears".

Do you think someone partied too hard?

Yep. I would say so.

Happy Birthday Morgan! We love you so very much!! Thank you to Grandpa and Grandma, Steph, Sean, and Aunt Kathy for coming out to celebrate with us.
