Happy Birthday Audrey!

Our little girl is 3!!!

She had special requests for her cake this year - mice & cheese, grapes, blueberries & a garden - and she loved her extra special cake when it was all said & done. I love this photo :)

We can't believe how fast the past 3 years have gone. Audrey has grown into an independent, happy-go-lucky, sensitive little lady. She gives the biggest hugs, the sweetest kisses & loves to make us all laugh.

Audrey got spoiled with lots of one-on-one time with Nana & Grandma Carol!

Merry Christmas!

Christmas morning was really relaxing & lots of fun!

The holiday included mass at our very crowded church that was bursting at the seams, a delicious family dinner, a confetti angel food birthday cake for Jesus, some time at Grandma & Grandpa's house, and some time with visitors like daddy's family (photos coming soon), Nana & Uncle Pat.

With the added bonus of the pregnancy going well (much better than the last 2!) and everyone being healthy, it was truly a blessed holiday!Air hockey! :)

Uncle Pat & his girlfriend joined the festivities too!

Our house added a few more Lego's this ChristmasThe 4 (and a half) of us - last holiday as a foursome!Nana with the munchkinsAudrey & Ian love their new bouncy balls from santaGrandma & Grandpa with the kiddo'sAudrey the chefIan & his pirate ship
