Violet Turns 3

June has been a busy month so far, and it started out with a special birthday for Violet (aka "Violeta" at church) who turned three years old.


We celebrated with her favorite food, pizza (takes after her mom), and then mint chocolate bundt cake.

We wanted to get a picture of her hair the last day she was 2 years old, so we could always remember how long her hair got when she was 2. Here she is:


Looks like a wig, doesn't it? The length is pretty impressive (it's never been cut, nor trimmed), but what gets me is how thick it is. I like to joke that she has the genes of "my people", which is true. Latins are not known for their thin, wispy hair.


Violet's our little cuddle bug. She loves to cuddle with blankets (or her dog, "perro") and hug and give/receive kisses.

Sleeping with Perro
She's also pretty timid around strangers, or if she's just in a bad mood then she'll give you the look of death (doctor visits and photo shoots have become traumatic experiences...). If she's not standing RIGHT next to you at the store and you turn a corner, she will scream and think she's lost and start running in the complete opposite direction (ugh). Violet's such a little mommy to Jaxon and Ginger. She'll tell Jaxon to get out of the street (parking lot) and panic if he doesn't listen. She loves to bring Ginger toys and hold her hand and love on her.

We certainly do love our little Violet.
