Through the last 3 years...

It's so hard to believe that our little Jaylee-Bug is now 3!! She started out as a little Black hair baby and now has beautiful long blonde hair!! She was such a good baby and now she's a 3 year old with a personality all her own and is so stubborn and determined and opinionated that it's just crazy to even remember that she was once this little precious baby that was so good and so well behaved!! But even with her opinions and stubbornness, she has brought so much joy and love to our little family, we can't imagine our lives without her!!

A few things about Jaylee...
She can count to 10 very well and knows a few of the numbers 11-20 but she calls twenty "twenty-teen".
She sings the ABC song all the time leaving out letters k-o all the time.
She loves to sing, especially twinkle twinkle right now which she does LOUDLY during Sacrament meeting!!
She weighs 27lbs and is 36 inches tall now.
She LOVES to watch TV or movies and would if we let her all day long.
Cousins are everything to her, even some of our little friends are now cousins since she loves them so much.
She's finally warming up to the idea of having a baby around.
She will NOT use the potty no matter what the bribe!!
She talks all the time and doesn't know how to whisper!!
She's all girl but all boyish at the same time-she loves to have her fingers painted and wear pretty dresses but then she loves to play with cars and balls at the same time.
She tells people her name so fast that is sounds like she's saying one very long name since she tells everyone she is Jaylee Carol Bowuhuis.
She is really a nudest at heart and would run around naked all the time if she could get away with it.
She loves to tell us stories.
She comes up with some pretty funny ideas.
She is all about winning in everything.
When she wants to be funny, she'll give everyone kisses on the foot or leg when it's time for bed.

I could go on and on about this little princess, but we'd be here for days!! She is such a joy to our family and we love her so much!! Crazy, Loud, Nude whatever she comes up with for the day, we wouldn't change her a bit!! We love being your Mommy and Daddy!!
Happy 3rd Birthday Jaylee Carol!!
