So, I turned 31 this week...I am officially INTO my 30's. It was the first birthday that I ever remember it being 50 degrees. My memories of birthdays past include slumber parties on the farm with Dad running the snowmobile and pulling my friends and I behind in the toboggan. This year, the girls made it really special because they were SO excited, especially Addison. Her and Ben went to Walmart the night before my birthday to go shopping. Apparently she wanted to buy me some clothes there, but Ben convinced her that they should just get some food to make for supper the next night. Every idea Ben had for supper, Addison shot down saying, "Mommy wouldn't like that." "There's too much sugar in that." etc. Ben said it was like shopping with me. Finally, she decided that I would like a salad so they came home with apples, spinach leaves, tomatoes, avocados, and croutons.
Here are some pictures from the past few days...
January 11th (this was Charlotte's due date one year ago!) and she is now climbing on chairs but she can't get down so she screams until I help her.
The sign my Mom, Addison, and Emelia made for me.
Ben and the girls bought me flowers
Sisters are awesome
Charlotte's first time sledding

She has gone from licking the utensils in the dishwasher to climbing into it.
A birthday card came from Uncle Cannon today and a present from the Korbmachers for Charlotte's birthday.
I will have to say, she wouldn't put the card down. It had a picture of a baby on it that she wouldn't stop staring at and it sings the song Baby Love. She wanted to take it to bed with her.
I'm sure when we get the Korbmachers gift open she will love that just as much as her card:)

so sweet! I just love Charlotte's smiles - hope you had a wonderful birthday!
