    Happy September 11th Birthday to this big 3 year old!

    She knew exactly what cake she wanted. She pulled it up on kids U tube and we watched the tutorial and SHE LOVED IT.

    She chose to have a cousins party! Lots of her sweet, BiG, cousins came and humored her on her special party night. We played Barbie Barbie Hula Hoop and opened gifts and played in the back yard and ATE ARIEL!!

    Her Birthday was on Sunday. We opened gifts and tried out her new “car” before church!

    She also had time for her playdoh and Unicorn.

    Monday night we went to the Hancock’s house for dinner and then hurried back for cake and Ice cream and a gift from Grandma and Grandpa and of course more driving of the new car:

    Another Birthday success! Millie is still such a ball of energy. She is social. Sha talks really well and likes to communicate. She thinks she is a 6 year old and can play pretty well. She still has a tendency to hit and pinch and we are still getting used to the new glasses and still trying to finish out the potty training. It has lost its newness and I have been to lazy to make a chart and bribe her to the end… But I will. Millie Girl gives great hugs. We love her.

    Glasses

    Millie has glasses! She’s adorable.

    She had a little wandering eye so I took her in. Dr. said her eyes didn’t seem to be working together, so the glasses will give them the same focus? I really am just trusting the guy and hoping this is what her eyes need.

    She has had them for more than 2 weeks now but it is still a fight to get her to wear them. So far I can only win if I let her watch TV or Tablet – then she knows she has to wear them and she seems to be getting more used to them now…

    Really she’s barely 3 years old so it is a constant battle and neither she nor I know what she needs. Β AGAIN, I’m just trusting in the glasses and my daily debate of not taking her in for a prescription check.
