Happy Birthday, Will

We had an uneventful day even though there was cause for major celebration. Will turned another year older - 34 to be exact. So young if you ask me, a 35 year old. Ha ha ha.

Sophia made Daddy a card this morning and picked out this cake this afternoon. She signed her name in the card. S O P H I A. She writes every single letter the same size. It's like she assigns the same value to each of them and boy are they tall. Tall and skinny.

Back to Will's birthday. He watched the kids this morning while I painted Sophia's room a pretty light blue color to blend with her bead spread. Blue has been her favorite color since she started talking. And guess what? When I tucked her in tonight she told me her new favorite color is purple and wondered if we could paint her room purple. I tickled her for torture.

We went to the mall to visit Easter Bunny this afternoon. I dressed the girls up in coordinating summer dresses (because it was 78 degrees today) and when we got there Lilly bawled her eyes out while she sad beside the Easter Bunny to get her picture taken. She sobbed until I picked her up. Sophia gave him a high five, a hug, danced with him, and sat right by his side with a smile on her face in the photo. I ended up buying the picture even though Lilly looks terrified. I think I'll take them back next week to see if I can get a better photo.

Will bought himself a pair of swimming gloves at Dicks. He's back into swimming laps at the rec center and, since he was off this week, he's also taken Sophia to frolic around in the shallow end a few times. She loves it! He took her swimming after school on Wednesday and she fell asleep on the couch at 5:30 (nice) and it's great exercise for her too.

Will ended the day with a 6:30 kickball practice and came home with a few more scrapes and cuts than he left with. I skipped tonight and put Sophia's room back together while they were gone.

Anyway, Happy Birthday, honey! We love you.
