My baby.........

is growing up.  It seems just yesterday this little (well as little as 10 lbs 2 oz can be) came into our family.

What an angel.  We miss those days but love her so much.

Halle got to have two parties this year.  One was combined with Grandma Blauer who has a birthday just 4 days before Halle.  She loved it and says "I love Grandma Blauer because her favorite color is purple like me."

Enjoying her Dora guitar from Grandma and Grandpa Blauer.

Her pink bat from mom and Dad.

Her Dora baby from Grandma and Grandpa Taylor (this doll goes everywhere with us.  Even rides in her basket for 3 mile bike rides.

Halle wanted an angel cake.  She designed the whole cake/

blowing out candles.

Her raincoat and umbrella from Grandma Nette and Grandpa Air.

This was not her birthday but she came out the other morning looking like this.  When I asked her what she had been doing she said "nothing"  I asked her if she had been playing in my makeup and she looked totally shocked and asked how I knew.  I wonder.......

This was the cake we made for mom's birthday.  Lets say it was very chocolaty.  I know lisa loved it.

Grandma and Halle blowing out candles.  It was a great birthday and we just love having Halle around.  She keep life entertaining and busy  (very very busy).
