May 10th - Happy 4th Birthday Erin!!!

It was finally Erin's birthday! I like to take pictures of the children when they wake up on their birthday. Erin is a very sweet and kindhearted child. She wakes up right away every morning and always has a smile on her face.
"Good morning birthday girl!"

This was an extra special morning because not only was it Erin's birthday, but Emma just had her first visit from the Tooth Fairy! My best friend, Sherri, made Emma a Tooth Fairy pouch (sorry I forgot to take a picture of it!) so the first thing Emma did was check her pouch in the morning. I love that smile! Then it was off to show Oma her earnings for her tooth.

I just love the magical excitement of it all!

Sadly, it was also the day that mom, Jessica and Daniel were driving back to St. Charles. The boys decided to clean up a bit (with baby wipes) before saying goodbye.
The cleaning gene runs deep in the family! :-)

Josh working on Lego's with the children. Emma was following the picture EXACTLY to make a little Lego building.
Where's Eric?

Oh! There he is.

Erin wanted to make a pink cake with strawberries for her birthday, so we did.


Yet another one of Josh's face expressions on Eric!

Yummy cake for a goofy girl!

Happy Birthday my sweet little Erin!

Such precious faces. I love the picture of Josh doing Legos with the kids. Not many children have such a good Lego building Dad in their lives!!! We'll have to get him more for his birthday!
Erin's birthday was such fun, along with Emma's first lost tooth and the circus, and cakes, and...so much fun!
