Happy B'day to Daddy

Ellabeth was very excited to sing the happy birthday song again, and she and Anderson are always happy to get more cake!

Once again, Lilajean was not very interested in the birthday festivities.

After cake, we went outside to run off some of the sugar buzz energy.

She did finally wake up for some play time!

Crowd Pleaser

Lilajean doesn't have to do much to get plenty of attention from her big brother and sister!

Birthday Celebration

The cake display was very unimpressive compared to last year, but that didn't stop Ellabeth from singing "happy birthday to me" over and over. She says "thank you SO much" for all the love she received on her special day!

She's Three!

No matter where you are, if you are still enough you may hear her dancing around singing "i'm the birthday girl" and feel the breeze from her practicing to blow out her candles!

Week One

Donnie has named our house of 5 "beautiful chaos" and I think that's a great description. We'll see if that changes after we lose our grandma help and have to do everything on our own! Lilajean's first week has been filled with lots of love and kisses, fun playtimes, practice with utensils and Ellabeth's first day of mom's day out. You might recall that the first day last year didn't go so well, so we are very happy to report that she loved it this year.
