Happy 3rd Birthday

Look at me I am Three!

Update:
Height 37 inches
Weight 30.6 pounds

We celebrated Tanith's 3rd Birthday in a nontraditional way, in Las Vegas on our way to the Grand Canyon. We love you so much...Happy Birthday!

Tanith is growing up to be such a caring and outgoing little girl. She continues to talk more and from time to time surprises us with her vocabulary. She observes everyone and everything around her and has the ability to pick up and retain it all. She is strong minded and challenges us, mostly in a good way. If you tell her something, she will remind you of it later...guaranteed! She is super playful and always wants to be apart of what is going on.

Things to Remember:

We asked Tanith, who is the most beautiful girl in the world...her answer, Snow White :)
Tanith is asking us to "show her" how to do things, rather than us doing it for her
She is starting to make up songs
Loves playing doctor with all her stuffed animals, us and the dogs
She is getting better with the potty training. It is a slow process for us, but we are doing better. One night she wanted to play with her new toy and we told her, not until she makes #2 on the potty...she really wanted to play with it and went potty! Success with bribes :)

Birthday Gift Tracker
Tia Tati gave her a lot of toys to play with.
Auntie Marlene gave her some books, which came in handy on our road trip.
Aunt Joan gave Tanith some money which we will use to get her something special.
Grandma/grandpa gave her money, a pretty dress and little Disney dolls.
Auntie Sheryl gave her a Doctors kit, for pets...super cute and Tanith has not stopped playing with it.
Pat, Dave and Erin gave her a magic wand that helps with learning letter, etc.
Diane, Stephen and Olethia gave her a play-doh set...such fun

And more Birthday celebrations...Auntie Teresa, Uncle Rick, Matt, and Emily got Tanith a swimming pool and bathing suit...super excited. We also had a wonderful BBQ with plenty of deserts. Tanith had a great time, especially playing with Matt, Emily Matt C. and Ryan.
