Annabell Evolit is 3!

I can't believe our little girl is already 3 years old. It still feels like yesterday that I was walking into the hospital to have her. These past three years has been the best of my life. Being able to watch Annabell grow up and learn so many new things has been such a blessing. She has grown into a beautiful little girl and has the biggest heart of any kid I know. She now knows all of her colors, she can count to 15 & knows all the words to about 100 different songs! Dancing and singing is definitely her favorite thing to do, I can't wait to have our own home so we can have our dance parties again. Year 2 was fun, but I cannot wait to see what year 3 brings!

This year we weren't able to do much on her actual birthday. We are still stuck in a hotel here in Germany and patiently waiting for our car to arrive. Since we weren't able to take her out, we did the next best thing and ordered her a pizza. Pizza is her all time favorite food and she was so excited when the delivery man showed up at the door. Anna was able to Facetime with her Great Nana before the pizza arrived. Annabell was so happy to see her Nana and tell her all about the pizza and cookies she was getting! I love that technology makes the distance seem less far away. She also got to skype her best friend Emma after not seeing her for over 2 months! After we got off skype she asked for Emma the entire night & even set aside toys for Emma to play with. They are so adorable together!

We should have a car this week, so this weekend we plan on taking Anna out and letting her pick some gifts and take her out for ice cream. We have been in this hotel for almost 2 months so I know Annabell is going to be extra happy about getting out and going shopping! Once we have our house, we are going to get her a fish tank and let her pick out some fish, she LOVED our beta fish in Arkansas. I know she will be extra excited to get to pick some of her own fish out & decorate the tank.

Annabell was extra spoiled by our family and friends. Most people gave her birthday gifts early while we were at home visiting & Annabell loved all her gifts! I know she has a few gifts on the way from several family members and she's going to love them! Her Great Nana sent a box full of goodies and Anna was so excited to open her present, any box that shows up at the house is always Anna's, lol. Her other Grandma also sent a box and bought Anna a little mermaid kitchen! They are both on their way here and I can't wait for Anna to open them. She's going to be so excited about her new kitchen, we gave away her old kitchen because we thought our home here would be extra small since it's an apartment, but the apartments here are bigger then our stand alone home in Arkansas! 

In 8 short days we will get the keys to our new home AND the movers have arrived with our things so the day we move they will bring all of our stuff to be dropped off. Anna will finally have her room back and that alone is an amazing gift for her! The last month she has asked for all her toys and her baby dolls, when she sees them all again she's going to be the happiest kid alive! I can't wait to see her face when her room is all decorated again with all her mermaids. :)
