Jordan's Third Birthday!

This actually happened a month and a half ago but I'm a little bit behind with blogging. :(  We've been so busy the past month of half with the business of everyday life and the holidays!  We've been doing lots of fun things and I am excited to finally catch up with the blog!  We celebrated Jordan's third birthday over a three day period.  The first day we went back to the Wildlife Zoo.  We went there last year and had so much fun so decided to go back this year.  We had a great time looking at all the exhibits and going on a few rides.  The next day we had her birthday dinner at Serrano's.  This girl LOVES cheese, chips and salsa so this is her favorite place to eat at.  We did birthday gifts that night and the following day (her actual birthday), Jordan and I had some one on one time and I took her to a park where she could ride her bike.  Jamie is so fast now it's a bit more challenging for her to keep up when we do family bike rides so she was pretty excited to be able to go at her pace!
My Baby Girl!  I am so thankful God blessed us with a little girl like her......wouldn't change it for the world! XOXO

Tough picture to see with the flash but the alligator was sleeping.  The kids thought it was so cool to be able to sit right underneath him.
Jordan was so excited she was tall enough to go on the log ride this year!  Last year she was so sad when Jamie got to go but not her.  She really liked it. (So did I!)
This picture makes me laugh....she was so nervous she would tip the hat off her head so she literally stood like this, as still as possible, while the staff sang to her.  It was so cute and funny!
Relieved the song is over but still worried she was going to drop the "big hat." 
One happy little girl about to open presents! 
The picture cracks me up.  Jamie kept wanting to blow out the candles too but Jordan wanted to do it by herself first.  We had to light the candles a few times before this happened.  Daddy's hand over Jamie's mouth helped as well. :)
