Just this year I have started a new tradition. I decorate the kid's rooms while they sleep on their birthday. It is so fun and the other older kids who are still awake help. Elijah's birthday was the day before and being so close after Christmas (29th) and he was staying in his cousins room, I forgot... I felt so bad about it. But the next night I almost forgot Esthers (30th) and ran to wal-mart at 11 PM to buy stuff. I thought at one point that she was going to wake up, but didn't.

They are so angelic when they are asleep...

The good thing about the holidays is all the family that visits. Here is her cake with her cousins...

All these pretty girls....
