A Princess Turns Three

It amazes me that Makayla is three years old already! She brings such joy to our lives. She is sweet, but silly, fun, yet sometimes serious. She is beautiful both inside and out. I am so thrilled to call myself her mother.

Makayla has decided lately that pink and purple are her favorite colors. She has also recently become enamored with the Disney princesses. She is often found playing dress up or playing dramatically with her princess figurines. This year's cake request included a castle, a Cinderella cake, and a Belle cake. Tall order for a two, soon to be three year old, don't you think?! Well, I'm not one to back down from a request, or in this case, a challenge. So...to cover all of my bases, I made a pink and purple castle cake topped with Disney princess figurines, as well as Cinderella, Belle, Ariel, and Sleeping Beauty cakes (Ok, so by the time I got to the doll cakes, I was really tired and they look nothing like the princesses, but in Makayla's eyes, they were just what she wanted!)

I hope my sweet baby girl continues to be so playful and full of life. I love watching her in her element. I want to cherish each moment, as I know how fast these three years have gone!
