Cali turns 3

Cali had a FABULOUS 3rd birthday yesterday. She loved every minute of it. Balloons, Barbie cake, playing, family lunch out, PRESENTS!, pizza, and lots of attention! ... We are so grateful that she's in our family, whole and healed and beautifully recovered from her lymphangioma. Thanks to all who were so sweet to our Cali-boos on her special day!

The festivities!





















{Now that her birthday's over, what are we going to talk about every minute of every day? Christmas!}

Here are some past photos of our little Cali. Starting with her birth day ...

T-minus 3 days

Cali is so excited for her 3rd birthday -- she's been talking about it for months! Every few minutes she'll burst out with, "I'm so excited for my birthday!!" and ask me for a countdown of how many days away it is. And you may notice that she's following Bria's lead with the Barbie obsession.

Happy Halloween!

The kids are in seventh heaven with their bucketfuls of candy! They were so excited about the Halloween decor, pumpkin carving, festive storybooks ... and I must say they were the darn cutest trick or treaters!
