Sydney's Birthday

Last Wednesday was Sydney's 3rd birthday. Rural Cap Weatherization was still here working on our house, so after helping me make her birthday cake, we headed over to Spring party a friend was having. Daddy surprised us by coming home early from work though, so we soon came back home. He'd brought her some birthday balloons, one even sang "Happy Birthday, and she loved that. After eating lunch and having quiet time, Sydney chose to go swimming. It was Wynn's first swimming excursion and I was really surprised how long he lasted. He stayed in the water for about 45 minutes. Sydney had a ball playing in the water since it had been a few months since we've been swimming. Then we headed to McDonald's for dinner - Sydney's choice. Finally, we frosted and decorated her cake, ate it, and then opened her presents. There was just enough time to play with a few before bed and overall, I think she had a good day :D. At three years old, her newest feats are riding a tricycle, swinging by herself, tracing letters, playing board games, naming several words that start with the same letter, and getting herself dressed and undressed. We love to watch her grow! She really refused to look at the camera and smile all day, so this is the best I have :/, but better to come at her friend party..
