Happy Birthday Natalie and Abby!

Well, this is only 2.5 months late, but I still wanted to get the birthday post out there for all to see.

It's been 4 years! FOUR YEARS!! I can't believe it. It's absolutely incredible that we have come from this....

Abby and Natalie

The girls had a relatively low key birthday, but full of activity. Their birthday was Sunday, May 15, but because of a ballet recital, we had their little party on Saturday.

As in the past two years, it was simple and really just family. Although, this year, I'm thrilled to report that the girls actually have a little friend that we were able to invite. Since meeting at Little Gym last summer, Kenan, Natalie and Abby have been bosom buddies and have enjoyed many a play date between Kenan's house and ours. Her mom, Regan, and I have become close friends which has been wonderful for me as well.

Since Natalie and Abby are all about princesses these days, it was only fitting we had a princess party!

Introducing...the three pretty, pretty princesses!




A great shot of Princess Abby

Our Princess party included a Princess Pinata






great gifts (and thank you hugs)




And, absolutely amazing Princess cakes courtesy of Grammy (my mom)! She did an incredibly job on Snow White (for Natalie) and Aurora aka Sleeping Beauty (for Abby). In Natalie's words, "wow!"

No birthday would be complete without a shot of the little sleeping twins that graced the cake at my baby shower.

When it comes to chocolate, the girls are very serious!

I love this picture of Ben and his family


The girls really enjoyed their party and loved playing Princess with Kenan and all our family. We are so blessed to have so many people who love them so much.

These are the "semi-official" 4 year old pictures - taken on their birthday.
