Eryn's 4th Birthday

Eryn turned FOUR on February 15th

we got to take cup cakes to daycare                                     

AND        

celebrate at home




Lewis was pretty disappointed he didn't have any presents....
but he got over it after Eryn opened some and he started playing with them

Eryn got lots of fantastic gifts that she loves!  Each time she opened a new gift she would get ecstatic and over-excited.

 

I decorated Eryn's cake and she loved the little
flowers and star candles

she did a GREAT job blowing out all the candles!


My favorite part of the day was when Eryn came upstairs in the morning and I said, "Happy Birthday, Eryn," in a quiet voice.  She gasped and whispered, "Is today is my birthday?" She was getting excited.  I picked her up and said, "Yes, today is your birthday, how old are you?"
Her answer was priceless, and I wish I had had a video camera at that moment...
She said, "I'm four!  I'm so old now.  Look at my face (as she grabs half of her face with one hand turning her face and leaning into me)  its getting so old!  Look at how old my face is, mommy."
All I could do was laugh.  What do you say to that?

We love you very much Eryn!
You make us laugh everyday!

Winter Wrap Up

Eryn participated in Junior Cheer Camp in January


it was so fun to watch the cute little kids in the front try and follow the routine

Aunt Katie's basketball team beat Royal TWICE during league play

(had to take a victory photo!)

I tested the zoom capacity on my camera

and caught Eryn and Lewis holding hands on the way to Grandma and Grandpa's house



Eryn and Lewis soaked up some
camera time with baby cousin Bella




couldn't get a picture with open eyes and smiles, so we took several

I even got in on some camera action with the little chunker - and look no tears



I turned a whole 23 years old on January 26 

  
 Eryn and Lewis were more excited than I was when it came to opening presents. It was GREAT to share in the fun with them. 

  
On January 28 - Eryn performed with her  dance class during half time of one of Aunt Katie's basketball games
