Victoria turns 9!


Our sweet baby turned 9 last week! I'm sure that it was just yesterday that we were headed to the hospital in the middle of the night and welcomed her to this world in the early hours of the morning. She came so fast, the doctor wasn't expecting it and almost dropped her! Since that day she has been a joy to our lives. She is quiet and thoughtful. She enjoys her friends, but needs space to herself. She loves her sisters and gives into them often. In fact, it is hard for her to do homework if Olivia is the least bit unhappy (hmmmm...)
For her birthday we had what was supposed be a small gathering for cake and candles. By the end of the event, we had a full house, cake, and a chocolate fountain for dipping fruit. It was a lot of fun and we enjoyed the fellowship. For a full view of the gathering, you can see Sara's pictures. Victoria will get to celebrate her birthday this weekend with a couple of friends and a trip to a children's city (hard to explain) in Mexico City. Keep tuned for pictures (I'm sure I'll post about that sometime in June!).

Lunch at Applebees with Sara and Jeanine with a surprise from the waiters.



The birthday crowd (the kids anyway)
