Zuri is 3!!!!!

Zurianna turned the big THREE!  After Christmas I told her that her birthday was next.  So, she would keep saying "Christmas is over, what is next??  MY BIRTHDAY!"  Followed by her saying that she wanted a PARTY where she could wear a birthday hat and balloons and blow out candles like this and she would pretend to blow them out. Zuri told me that she wanted a superhero birthday and that she wanted a superhero cake.  She would tell me that she is going to be 3 (while holding up a different amount of fingers).  It is definitely interesting how she had her own visions of what she wanted for her birthday.  So, of course we tried to do some or most of what she asked.

She wore the Superhero dress I bought her for Christmas for her birthday.  Pedro picked up balloons and birthday hats on his way home from work.  She was very excited.

Our morning started with going out to breakfast.  She wore her birthday hat to the restaurant.

  Then  she got to choose her breakfast and then when they brought it out they had a candle on it so we sang to her and she blew it out!  She was so excited!

She had told me that she wanted Anna for her birthday because Avi gave her Elsa for Christmas.  So, Avi gave her a present at the restaurant and it was ANNA!  She screamed and yelled!  I gave her a card that sang "Let it go" and she was even more excited.

After breakfast we headed downtown to the stock show parade.  We got to see some of her favorite animals--horses and cows.  She was very happy.

After the stock show parade we went home for a short nap.  After nap time I surprised her with a horse barn and a horse!  She was so excited especially after seeing the horses earlier in the day.  Then we went to Chuck E Cheese, where she played the night away with Grey and Ashby.  Nana and papa came too.

She is happy here...not a great picture!

And another round of happy birthday and blowing out candles....

On Saturday (two days later) we had another family party where Kurt and Dena's family came, Kory and Karen's, Nana and Papa and Linzy and Chyler.  We went to Torres because Zuri asked for mexican food (she said she wanted chips or mexican every time I asked her).  She had more fun there and some fun gifts.  Along with another singing of happy birthday and more candles.

She then proceeded to wipe off the whip cream and eat it...!

She had a great birthday!

Zuri's 3 year stats!

Height: 40 inches tall 97% (They say she will be somewhere between 5'8 and 5'11).
Weight: 36lbs 90%  (Think she has weighed this or more for months)


She was such a good girl at her doctors appointment!  No crying and she fully cooperated, although there were no shots involved!
