I love You...

Our baby girl is 4!


We did a little surprise party for her with Marty's Dad and Merry. It was so great, Ruby didn't know what to do when she walked in the door and we yelled "surprise!" She was so shocked and almost started crying....
This is her disaster of a cake...the princesses and flags helped dress it up, but....it looked so simple in the magazine, I don't know what happened....
The weather was so nice she got to do her favorite thing of late....ride her bike...with her new helmet.

We think you are so wonderful little Rubes...
Happy Birthday!!
Oh yah, and Liam is getting closer to walking!! Hooray!

Ruby, you have been on the earth for four whole years. Such a long time. I've missed most of it. I love you with all my heart. Happy Birthday

Love Grandma Diane

Like you didn't know already, but you seriously are so pretty! I love the pic with you and Ruby. Like mother like daughter! I can't believe she's already 4. Seriously, that picture of her in her tutu is priceless. You don't get any cuter than that. And Liam is getting so big.
I seriously love the cake. It was made with love...right? I also hate making things from magazines. It never turns out the same. Haha. It's probably just me.
Let's go to lunch sometime. Seriously. Or we can even go to the park or something, if the weather decides to be Spring. Give me a jingle!

Happy Bday to Ruby! I think she looks a lot like you. Don't worry about the cake - it's cute. But I know what you mean. I made one from a magazine for Aidan's first bday and it looked SUPER easy and turned out not so much. I'm going to attempt to make Madison's this summer from fondant. I guess there is some easy kit you can buy at Michael's but we'll see.....Good job Liam!!!

it was to visit your site..been awhile. I thought Ruby's cake was awesome and I'm sure she loved the princess castle - Way to show off her flexability - look out 2021 olympics! Also loved pics of your fun Valentines day and Ruby kissing the snowman...next time post cuter pictures of Liam to make up for his runny nose ones...when he gets older - you will be in trouble! He is such a handsome guy.
