Where did the last 3 years go?

It is unreal that my "baby" is already 3 years old. Time just seems to go by faster every day. I want to take some time to write down some of my favorite things about Kate at this age.

Stats: 36 pounds, 3 ft 2 inches

Activities / My Favorite things:
1) You are very (berry) imaginitive - babies / dollhouse / tea parties / playing dress-up
2) Pretend play is extremely serious (once, Rachel took your pretend cookie and you cried and chased her to get it back)
3) You LOVE your baby sister . . . you carry her around and she loves to follow you and play with you all the time
4) You are a major Momma's girl
5) You like to tell everyone how to spell your name K-A-T-E
6) You get very proud of yourself when you accomplish anything that you are working on
7) You really enjoy playing games on Daddy's iPad - your current favorite is Dora Alphabet
8) You can button your own shirts
9) You are getting really good at tracing letters
10) You are excellent at Memory (way better than Momma)
11) You refer to cousins and friends as one in the same
12) You talk about your upcoming wedding ALOT (it makes me excited for the time when we will get to plan it together, but sad that I know it will come before I am ready
13) You talk constantly!
14) You love to see with the radio . . . your favorite songs are Tonight and Ha Ha Ha
15) You always want to give compliments . . . You say that we are pretty, handsome, and smart at least once a day
16) You refer to yourself as the "prettiest girl in the whole world"
17) You want to help with EVERYTHING . . . and I do mean EVERYTHING
18) You tell it like it is . . . ALWAYS (I am certain that this will embarrass us at some point)

Things that aren't so great, but I love them anyway:
1) You are pretty bossy (especially when telling others that they are not the boss)
2) You LOVE to argue . . . and you HAVE to get the last word.
3) You want to be right, and when you aren't, you try to bend the situation to make yourself right (I'm sure you get this from your Daddy)
4) You talk constantly
5) You want to help with EVERYTHING (yes, I realize some of these things were on both lists)

You are so precious to me and I wouldn't trade you for the world! Happy Birthday, my sweet Kate!
