Happy Birthday Isabelle!

This day was long awaited by the special girl, beginning the official count down 20 days earlier.
It was definitely a day about "me" ~ but that is what a birthday is about afterall isnt it?
 

 Yoghurt parfaits to start the morning off thanks to the little umbrellas
 that came from our drinks
(what I am saying? I mean Uncle Shannon's drinkS)
in Hawaii.
 
 
The "decorating committee" had a grand time with the left over crepe paper from a previous birthday.
 

 
 Sausage, Uncle Ben's "hot" sausage, Applesauce, Bread and Carrot sticks for dinner.
 


My Flower Cake!

 
Isabelle: where are my new boots Mom? I didnt even try them on.
Around the corner stomped Louis, quite proud!
Isabelle still has yet to try them. Louis even had to wear them outside yesterday. 
 
 
I wanted to have the perfect moment and sit down altogether and look at Isabelles baby album and remember ~ but alas this was more fun to watch. 

 
(The next day) Isabelle kept prodding: We have to go get the mail, Grandma said she sent my pkg and it would be here on my birthday! We had got a fresh new 4+ inches of snow so off Drew and Isabelle went to get the mail and awaited pkg.
Of course Isabelle insisted they take the sled to bring the pkg home in 
(she knew as soon as she told Drew she couldnt walk he would pull her in the sled).
He ended up pulling her all the way up and back.
I rocked Louis to sleep as we watched their 1/2 hr trek. I loved it.
Isabelle I hope you realize what a hero your brother is to you!



You could put your hands in the sled Isabelle to make it easier!
 


 


 
Reading Grandma's card to Isabelle.

 
We love pkgs from Grandma. Thank you Grandma, you're the best!
