Josephine's 4th Birthday

Josephine turned 4 in December! We had her birthday party the day before her birthday and she made sure to tell everyone that she wouldn't be four until Sunday. She's so precise. : )


Josephine wanted another pink dragon cake like last year. She wanted it to be on fire since "real" dragons shoot flames, but after some explaining she was okay with no fire. Her logic told her that we could set the dragon on fire then pour water on it so we could eat it.

Josephine didn't want to blow out her candles so she asked Naomi to do it for her. Quite a pair those two!!!


Josephine and Naomi really wanted to eat the marshmallow eyes, so they got to eat the head. Ada was excited about the cake too! You can see her putting her finger in the icing.


Ada devouring her cake. She loves sweets!


Josephine and Naomi eating their cake and ice cream.


Josephine wanted Naomi to help her open presents too. They want to do everything together. As I recall, Josephine helped Naomi open her birthday presents last May.

November and December 2009

Here are a few pictures and videos from November and December 2009.


We got our first glimpse of Suzannah Mae who is due at the end of April. She was 15 weeks in utero in this picture. (Her head is on the right and her foot is sticking up on the left.)

We had a snow day in December and took the girls to the farm to sled. We put Ada in a snowsuit. She didn't quite know what to think about it. The look on her face in this picture cracks me up.


Ada sees the goats or horses in the field.


Josephine was slow in joining us, but she eventually came and had fun.

Videos: The first is from our trip to Leah, Brian and Isaac's in November. Ada and Issac are playing the organ together. The second and third videos are from the snow days.
