Happy Birthday Mabel!


Mabel turned 3 on September 11th.  We celebrated with a “Purplicious” party on September 10th and were joined by family and a few friends.  Given the events that had occurred the previous week, it was actually a wonderful time to bring people together to celebrate our little treasures.  There was a lot of purple and Mabel loved her birthday cake.  As is becoming our tradition, we ended the day with an outdoor movie night on the driveway.  This year we watched, Tangled.  In case you haven't noticed, Rapunzel, also wears a purple dress!


 Mabel, at three years old you run the world…or at least our household.  You are the funniest little person with more facial expressions than anyone I know.  I know for certain I have looked at you and have seen 5 different expressions come out before a blink goes by.  You love the color purple, love the Disney princesses, especially “sleeking” beauty.  You are a great story teller and love to make sure your brother is listening, “right Louis?” Speaking of your brother, you know how to push his buttons and seem to get a kick out of doing it.  You enjoy being around adults and will often leave the kids behind to hang out with us by the table.  You enjoy cooking with Papa and love taste testing everything from spinach to stinky cheese, from hummus to chocolate.  You really have quite the palate for a three year old – especially one who used to be the pickiest eater in the house.  You are a pack rat and a bag lady, always carry a full bag of something (I fear what your room will look like as a teenager).  You are a little peanut with a big head of hair that makes us laugh every morning.  You bring many smiles to our house with your twinkling eyes and zest for life.  We love you Mabel.  Happy Birthday.
