Laney Turns 3!

Delaney June turned 3 years old last week and we celebrated quietly at home opening presents that arrived in the mail from all over the country just for her.

Earlier this summer nanny Natalie and the girls wrote letters to the Disney princesses and they wrote the girls back just in time for Laney's 3rd birthday:
The first package we opened was from Roo (my mom) so we web-cammed with her while we unwrapped. My mom also had a brownie with a candle lit...after singing they blew out the candle together.
Mom got Lane a Merida costume (Brave) and the wig was cracking us up!
Next was some birthday singing from Bobo and Grandma Laura



Then a small celebration with some friends...

Laney's personality has blossomed so much in the last year. She continues to be our rough-and-tumble little girl that doesn't bat an eye when she's disciplined, can hold her own (and often wins) against her big sister, can make us laugh with her "bum bum shaking" and still loves to snuggle with us. She's so loving and affectionate, brave and boisterous, sweet and sassy. Mike was just saying this weekend how different our girls are from each other. Night and day. But that he wouldn't want two of the same kid. How wonderful it is to experience two very unique and equally fun little girls. Every day brings a new laugh, a new love, and new experience and we cherish every moment. Happy birthday Buggy!
