mette turns 3

we celebrated mette's 3rd birthday on her true birthday, even though the party was scheduled for later (and wound up getting delayed even moreso). but it was nice with just the 4 of us and she was, of course, perfectly happy.

hege and the girls made the cake and mette applied the raspberries (in heart shape)

see, perfectly happy. (this is later in the afternoon preparing to go out to the baby pool. she get compulsive about things like applying sunscreen. this is what we found after leaving her alone with the bottle for a few minutes.)
