BIRTHDAY WEEK!

I remember being so excited when Lauren made it to one year old because there were times when we thought that she might not make it. This week, Lauren turned two. What a victory!

We celebrated with a party with her friends on Sunday that was a lot of fun but, unfortunately, Lauren woke up from her nap feeling super sick. She was not herself for the first party of the party but managed to liven up when she got to open presents and eat cake. Surprise, surprise. We had been so excited for her party because we rented a bouncy castle for her to play in and I was worried that she wouldn't get to enjoy it. I guess the sugar gave her the energy that she needed to go in and jump like a crazy person and she ended up having a lot of fun.

Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate with us and to everyone who has helped Lauren get to this point in her life, either through your physical presence, your support or your prayers. We are so blessed to be surrounded by so many people who love our little girl.
