Birthday Nienie

The Big Day! Eden's 3rd Birthday party. Easily one of the best days of her little life. She was all smiles all day. Cute Nienie.
(side note: lots of friends have asked how we came to call her nie. when she was a bit younger and a bit less loquacious, she couldn't quite pronounce her name. "eenie" was her pronunciation. so i began calling her nie or nienie. and it has stuck.)



Some of the group. Note the princess decor. Of course.



I am a cupcake fiend. This is simply the easiest way to serve birthday cake to 3 year olds. It was nice to have a pool right there to clean off fingers.



This is where Charlie spent the majority of the party. In Mimi's arms. (my mom) She was so good to hold him so I could play with the birthday girl and make sure that everyone was having a great time.



We love our birthday girl!



He woke up just in time for presents.




Fancy Nancy hat. A huge hit and her new favorite bedtime story.







Surveying her haul. She got so many adorable things! Thanks friends!

Truly a wonderful day. Could she be cuter?
