A very happy birthday...to you

My girls sing that little diddy all the time and I don't even know what it's from. But it fits.

I think the reason people ALWAYS talk about how time flies, and where has the time gone, and "enjoy it! it goes so fast!", is because it's true. A year? Really?

This beautiful girl has certainly been a highlight of our last year. She is just a peach.
We were all alone on her actual birthday. (Well, it was the four of us. I guess that doesn't quite qualify as all alone. :)) But Marky was helping with a junior high retreat, my parents and Jill and Joel had company, and so the girls and I had our own private celebration. By that I mean: I stuck that hat on her and took a picture so we would know it was her birthday. And then I dressed them in their new $7 Costco pajamas and tried to take a picture that didn't work. (Thank you Costco and Carters for your partnership that provides cute pajamas for all my kids for 20 bucks!)
Sunday we had the real celebration. Cake Boss (Mark) iced our yummy strawberry Paula Deen cream cheese frosting cake. Yum. Unfortunately the birthday girl wasn't real excited about this picture!
Or the cake.
I mean, I'll eat it. Whatever.
Later Grandma brought over a few more treats. And we wore the pajamas again. And Kaiya sobbed on the floor. This is becoming a habit.
We LOVE our danger loving, thrill seeking, early walking, happy happy happy, strong willed, blue eyed girl. Happy Birthday sweet Reese!

I love these babies so much! The bloody nose picture makes me feel better about the puke picture I posted of Nattie. :) Reesy is so precious and the family picture of you with the cake is very cute. Love yoU!

Happy belated birthday to Reese! Looks like you all had a good time celebrating. Your baby (maybe not so much anymore) is just a doll. I mean, she's too cute. :) All your girls are adorable. Hope Florida life is treating you well. It probably is, considering it's borderline still winter up here in the midwest and I'm sure in Michigan!
