Last night of three kids three and under

Today marks the last day of having 3 kids 3 yrs and under. We did it! Ha. 6 weeks almost exactly. Honestly it hasn't been that much different than having 2 (or 1 for that matter.) Yes, logistics change because you have 3 young people to care and of course nursing a newborn is a full time job alone. But for the most part it's all the same to us. We're back into our normal routine of play dates several times a week, preschool at home and the house is even clean by the the of each day. Obviously there are hard days but not anymore so than there were before. It helps that Peyton is just the sweetest little guy and that Morgan and Owen love him so much! Having kids close together definitely has it's advantages :)

Tomorrow little Miss Morgan turns 4. She of course is beyond excited to actually be FOUR! This girl is amazing and we are blessed to be her parents. She's just a ball of questions, energy and sweetness all rolled into one. She prefers that *I* answer her bazillion questions a day because even though Daddy obviously knows the answer she still wants to hear it from me too. She loves playing with Owen and might be ever so slightly bossy with him. He doesn't seem to mind and definitely believes the world revolves around his big sis. She is so talkative at playgrounds. It's hilarious. Jarid and I will just watch her and wait to see who she's going to pick to talk to. Usually it starts out "Hi! I'm Morgan and I'm 3." Mostly it's other kids she wants to play with but sometimes it's other moms too. She likes to introduce Owen as well which is very big sisterly of her. She likes to use the word "cool" now which is so funny to hear. She asks questions about her friends daily and when we're driving asks if all the other drivers are going to her friend's houses too. We get and give about 1000 hugs and kisses to this girl every day and wouldn't change a single thing about her!

Tonight is the last night our little Morgan will go to bed as a 3 yr old. Tomorrow she wakes up as a big 4 year old. 3 has been a fun year of playing, learning, growing, maturing and changes.
A few stats:
-She weighs 30 lbs, size 4t clothes, size 8 shoe.
-Her favorite things are "going to friend's houses", school, playing with Owen, facetime-ing with friends and family, baking and other typical 3 yr old things - puzzles, play dough, coloring, painting, ect.
-She dislikes being put to bed by anyone other than daddy, going to play grounds with no "other kids to play with", and being told no when she wants a "sweet treat" ;)

Morgan is one lucky little lady and has had presents trickling in the mail all week long. Thanks to everyone who sent something to celebrate her big day!

Here she is on her LAST night of being three with her super serious faces. Ha....onto the fours we go!
