Birthday Bliss...

It's been an action-packed weekend for our family. We've had lots of fun with Jen and Steph in town for Lydia's party! The party was a success thanks to the help of my mom and sister who are pretty much always picking up my slack. Once again, I couldn't have done it without them!

We went from one birthday party to another...After devoting their Friday and Saturday to my cause, my mom and sister spent Sunday preparing a birthday dinner for me. It was so nice. I have felt so blessed to have such great friends and family around me all weekend. Thanks to everyone for all the birhtday wishes and gifts. Gary surprised me with breakfast and a gift certificate to Nordstrom. I can't wait to re-vamp my wardrobe once I shed the baby belly :) What more motivation does a girl need!

Turk is THREE!

Lydia had her 3rd birthday on the 31st. We celebrated with a special breakfast of our favorite pancakes and none other than McDonalds for lunch. Grandma paid a visit in the evening and we went out to get supplies for the big cousins party which will take place tomorrow.

I can't believe my baby girl is already three. Next week marks the start of pre-school and dance lessons for her too. She's growing up so fast! Lydia has always been a little ray of sunshine in our house. We seem to fall mor and more in love with her every day! Recently we have seen a big increase in her vocabulary and her curiosity. It's been fun to listen to her put words together and interesting trying to answer all of her curious questions (especially with the new baby and all that that entails?!?!)She has also been big on dancing and performing for us lately. We are getting a kick out of her shows and her signature bow(sp?).

We love you Turk! Happy 3rd Birthday!
