Emmy has really turned a new leaf in the last few weeks. She has just been sweeter and hasn't thrown nearly as many fits as she as the last 6 months of her life. Halleluiah for being 3. Here are a few things that makes Emmy her unique little perfect self.
1. She is friendly and waves at complete strangers
2. Emmy has the best expressions
3. She always helps Sadie feel safe going downstairs
4. Emmy just loves being outdoors and will just venture outside all by herself
5. She loves to learn and just soaks up knowledge
6. Emmy loves to help me cook in the kitchen
7. She loves all animals, but especially dogs and cats
8. Emmy loves helping me load the dishwasher and folds the washcloths

Emmy really loves the movie, How to Train Your Dragon, and that would have been a fun party, but it is so hard to find party supplies for that movie right now, so we took Emmy to Zurchers to pick out a pinata and decided we base the party on whatever she chose. She found a rainbow pinata and likes the movie, Wizard of Oz too so it all worked out in the end. We got a Chinese noodle dish from Mings for dinner and listened to the soundtrack from the Wizard of Oz while we ate. My friend let us borrow her Dorothy costume and Emmy felt super special = mission accomplished.
Emmy sleeps with toothless and likes to fly him around the house.

Party in Utah - Emmy is 3
We drove to Utah the night before Emmy's birthday so she could wake up and "happy place" which is at one of the Grandma's houses, so it was totally the perfect place to be on her birthday. This picture is probably the only time Emmy cried her entire birthday which is a vast improvement over last years melt down fest.

My Mom sure knows how to throw a party. There was an insane amount of food, the place was decorated so festive (thank you Lisa too). I felt like I copped out and didn't have to do much work at all.

Cousins came including cute Grayson!

I wish I would have taken more pictures of everyone that came. It was a great birthday for Emmy!
