Happy Birthday Mercedes!!!

Our little princess Mercedes has turned 3 and we had a blast celebrating with family and friends. We had a special guest Princess Ariel join us, Mercedes was star struck and soaked up every minute of it. Mercedes loves taco salads, so at her request we had a lovely taco salad/burrito bar. Princess Ariel read the kids a story, sang/danced, and blew out the Birthday candles with Mercedes. We followed up the the usual pinata, which I think the adults enjoy more them the kids. Everything went perfectly, thanks to everyone that came. Mercedes is such a sweet and sassy young lady, we love her so very much. She has been begging for a sister for months now. However, with Christian back in school and Lincoln getting a little bigger, I've caught her combing, blow drying, and 'curling' her baby brothers hair. Lucky for her, Lincoln loves the attention and mothering she shows him (most of the time:)Mercedes, our little princess we love you so very much. You are such a sweet little lady and are so soft/gentle with Lincoln. On the other hand you are Christian's best wrestling buddy an partner in crime and they just adore you. Mercedes has come so far in the last year, she is very smart and wants to be just as big as Christian. She potty trained herself over a year ago, knows her colors/shapes, can count to ten, and can read a dozen or so words. Mercedes loves princess, doing hair/make-up, shopping, and animals. She wants to be a ballerina when she grows up and is going to marry her imaginary boyfriend JACK. Mercedes begs her Daddy on a regular basis to get her ears peirced, not yet. Mercedes we love and adore. We feel so blessed to have you in our lives and in our family. Thanks to all of our family and friends for coming and support Mercedes on her 3rd Birthday. We love you!
