Our Little L has moved from Toddler to Preschooler! She has grown amazingly in the past year. Here's last year's birthday photo:
And this years:
Notice the blurring of movement...that might say it all. This girl is a girl IN MOTION! She's busy talking, and walking, riding and hiding!
Here are some of our favorite birthday moments . . .
 |
| The kids pulled out the "Welcome Home" banner they'd made to welcome us back from Ghana. |
 |
| L received a sweet zebra pillow pet from a long-distance family member. He's very snuggly and is now named "Deeba" (that is L-speak for "zebra" if you hadn't guessed) |
 |
| Farmor sent some new clothes and L was really so excited. "My clothes?" she kept asking. |
 |
| Dad-Dad sent a funny blue dinosaur. L is very interested in dinosaurs. She thinks they are dragons and she loves dragons because her favorite movie is "How To Train Your Dragon." |
 |
| Gram and Fred sent a fun book, "Pete the Cat". L had been introduced to this story through a YouTube video of the book (author telling the story and singing songs). We love to dance around with Pete and sing, "I love my white shoes!" |
 |
| From her family, L got her first "American Girl"-style doll! She was really excited about this doll. I think it made her feel like a big girl. And she is. |
 |
| Bring on the Cake! |
 |
| Auntie B stopped by to bring a gift, too. A magnetic doll set! |
 |
| The girls went right to work getting the dolls all dressed up. |
 |
| And from our friends, and fellow Ghana-parents in Cali, a wonderful book to share! |
Happy Birthday, Baby Girl!
