Happy Birthday Lydia!!!

Lydia is now 8 years old!!!  Lydia has the most contagious giggle ever.  She loves language and words and word play.  She's very determined... once her mind is made up there's no changing it and no stopping her.  She's a perfectionist.  She loves drawing, coloring, doing arts and crafts, Littlest Pet Shop, fairies, zebras, monkeys, swimming, jumping on the trampoline, and dancing.  Happy Birthday Lydia!! We love you so much! 

And some pics from her birthday party.  We're having family parties this year.  Lydia wanted a swimming party.  So we went swimming as a family, then had pizza while we watched a movie and had cake.  She got gel pens and black paper, bubble gum, and $20.  And yes, they're all in pjs because they just got back from swimming and had a bath.
 Anna found orange sherbert lip gloss and bought it with her own money.  Lydia was excited and I thought the whole interaction was so cute - melted my heart.  I don't know who was more excited the giver or the receiver.  Anna was so proud of herself for keeping it a secret for 3 months - that's a hard thing for Anna!
