Presents for a 3 Year Old Birthday Princess

I don't know if I have mentioned lately how much Mayson is devoted to princesses?  Or maybe she  just gotten worse--I mean more passionate.  We usually have to leave the house dressed as Belle, Aurora, Sofia, or Cinderella.  If she isn't wearing one of their dresses, then she grabs some fairy wings and calls herself Tink.  She loves Jasmine too, and even though we don't have her outfit, I often am addressed as Aladdin, and Gray is called Abu.  I always get to be the main sidekick, so I am flattered.  When I got her the Belle dress for her birthday, along with the accompanying tea set, I didn't think ahead to the fact that I would probably be called "Beast."  And indeed, that is what I am.  It hasn't been so bad out in public when she calls me "Prince" or "Terrance" (Tinkerbell's best friend), but it sounds a little out of place when she yells, "Beast" across the street to get my attention.  Anyway, you can imagine the items on her birthday wish list.  Along with the Belle dress/tea set, she got a Doc McStuffin's medical kit (I've had lots of checkups), a tiara, a Sofia nightgown (she insisted on wearing her other night "dress" every night so we had to get a backup), Barbie,  a Pinkalicious set complete with book, picnic basket, and game, Sofia purse, and an airplane/airport figure set (That was the only non-girly exception). 

Happy Birthday to Mayson!  We love how smart and beautiful she is.  She is the life of the party; loves to laugh and dance and sing.  She loves books and listening to stories on CD.  I adore how she does a wonderful job making friends and engaging kids to play with her, act out stories, and run around.  She is a leader.  She is good at sharing with other kids, loves to close her eyes and sway to the music, and has a blast dressing up and pretending to be different characters.  She is amazing at role playing with little figurines, and has the best discussions with them.  I love how she really stops and thinks when you ask her a question before she responds.  I love how she looks at the world and makes comparisons between things. I like how she always wants to come up with a plan that fits her needs.  I adore when she says things like, "Thanks, Dad." or "Let's get that for extra case" instead of "Just in case." She runs really fast, and loves to make her brother laugh every night before bed by rolling around with him in his crib and making silly sounds.  She is amazing, and I am thankful for her every day.
