Leah Turns 3!









Our little turned 3 today! What a proud mommy and daddy we are. When we look back at last year's birthday pictures and first months home, its hard to believe how much Leah has accomplished. Yes, she is on hyper mode all day and a challenge to keep up with, but the love that pours out of this little body, and the sunshine she spreads to everyone she meets is a gift to our entire family, her family at lasy. We will forever be grateful that God has chosen us to be her parents.

She woke up this morning and knew it was her birthday as we have been telling her she was going to turn 3 for a few days. Even though when we asked her how old she was today, she still says 2. It took us forever to reprogram her and get her to stop saying 1! But she knew today was special. She wore her "Birthday Girl" shirt and wanted to dance, (picture 1). Later that morning her friends at the sitter's house sang "Happy Birthday", only she is the only one that knows the song word for word. Later we did it again at home after dinner. Finally she wanted to pose with her dog Roxy.

Happy Birthday, NeNe, we love you soooooooo much!

Mommy, Daddy, Danny and Mimi

Hi,

I just realized-Leah and I share a birthday! She's so adorable. LIly is adjusting well-except for the sleep part but I'm confident she won't be 18 and not wanting to sleep-We had her blood drawn at a lab-and it failed-we went to Joe DiMaggio's and they couldn't get any. Going to try one last time tom.

Wish us luck,
Happy Belated birthday to Wonderful Leah!

xoxo
