Vanessa is 3 Years Old!

My neice, Vanessa will turn 3 on May 26th, so in honor of her birthday - I took she and her little sister Brianna out for a couple of hours this evening for some pictures!  I haven't been able to hang out with the girls for quite a while, so it was nice to grab them and go take some pictures!


The goal was to get pictures of Vanessa, since it's her birthday.  If we could get a decent one of Brianna with her or Brianna alone, then great!  If not, then oh well.


Usually, when I take Vanessa's pictures, she's not the most willing to give a cheesy-toothy-grin.  But today... was great!!  I was so proud of her.  She was a little apprehensive at first ... about leaving without her mommy - but soon after we left and got started on pictures, she commented, "we don't need mommy to have fun!"  I was so happy that she had a good time.


If you haven't met her before... meet my three year old neice Vanessa...



 



 


 


Vanessa has never been a fan of getting her hair brushed...  when I was babysitting her on the weekends back in the fall, she mentioned cutting her hair to me and I told her mommy if she wanted me to cut it, I would.  Mommy and Daddy weren't ready to part with her hair just yet so I didn't touch anything but the bangs.


Low and behold... just a few months ago, Vanessa finally decided to cut her own hair!  (Hence the short haircut!).  So, I'm going to venture to say that Vanessa is going to be quite the determined one!


Vanessa's little sister Brianna is 10 1/2 months old and has a smile that melts your heart.



 


Vanessa is such a good big sister...



 


Vanessa was dying to see "the cows" at our second destination.  Somewhere between our first stop and our second stop... Brianna fell asleep - so it was just Vanessa and I on our next stop : The Farm.


The minute we arrived, Vanessa wanted to find the cows.  So i let her look for a few minutes before we jumped into more pics!



 



 




 


Finally!  Some cows came to talk to her, and she was SO excited!!!



 


 


 






 


Thanks girls for hanging out with me for a little bit tonight!! I had a great time and am SOOOO proud, excited and happy that you both smiled so pretttty!  xoxoxxo  See you tomorrow at your party!


And Happy Birthday to YOU Miss Vanessa!
