Marissa is three!

It's hard to believe that our baby Marissa is already three! She loved being the birthday girl and all the special attention that comes along with it. We had the McCarron and Dulzer families over to sing to the birthday girl!



Marissa is a HUGE Dora fan and thus almost all of her birthday presents were Dora related. Dora flip-flops, Dora sunglasses, a Dora t-shirt, Dora jammies, Dora bubble bath, and on and on!
I even wrapped up a box of Dora fruit snacks for her...she loved them. She sat in "the Dora birthday chair" while she opened up her presents.



Brianna made a very special hand decorated BFF frame of her and Marissa in their "Best Friend Dora" t-shirts. How cute is that?!



A basket full of bubble bath fun!



There was absolutely no debate on what kind of cake Marissa wanted this year. Dora the Explorer was it, of course! While I was a bit apprehensive to make this one due to all the frosting colors, I had to do it for my baby girl. Marissa was very happy with how it turned out! Here she is making a wish and blowing out her candles.

Marissa is embracing her third year with lots of vigor and little down time. She's a happy little girl (most of the time) and is constantly trying to keep up with her older siblings. At her three year checkup she was 37 1/2 inches long and she weighs 31 1/2 pounds.

Happy Birthday, Rissa!
