I love celebrating my girls’ birthdays! Although we don’t usually spend a lot of money, we try to fill at least two weeks with fun and celebrations and special memories just for them.

This week, we are in the midst of celebrating Monkey Doodle’s 3rd birthday. I’m not sure how this sweet baby girl got to be 3 already, but she is just days away from her official birthday, and the celebration is in full swing.

For her, a stereotypical middle child who sometimes doesn’t get as much attention as she deserves, it’s especially important to me that she has these moments in the spotlight, and she’s loving every moment of it!

As we celebrate here at home, stay tuned for posts about birthday crafts, cupcakes, homemade gifts and party ideas!
