HAPPY 5th BIRTHDAY ANALIESE!

Happy Birthday my sweet little angel!  What a fun day we all had. We celebrated Analiese's day at "Pump It Up"; a play place full of inflatables that you jump on, slide on and plain old play on!  
This year Analiese knew what to expect for a birthday celebration and was eagerly looking forward to hers.  We had the right amount of kids and they all seemed to enjoy themselves; as did most of the adults!
Analiese had a little trouble blowing the candles out on her cake but big sister Sarah came to rescue and helped out by holding Analiese's nose!  Finally, success!
When we got home we opened family gifts....with everything she got; scooter, boom-box, watch, Sponge Bob CD, books with CD's and some fun math games, she said, "OH MY GOSH"!   She loved each and every present.
We just cannot believe that our sweet baby is now 5, she has made such great improvements over the past (almost) 2 years.  She has a way to go yet before she is developmentally on target but she'll get there.  She continues to say she is "mommy's baby" and loves being the youngest in the family.  Bringing Matthew into the mix won't upset our birth order!
Speaking of Matthew, we haven't heard a peep about our LOA this past week.  I thought for sure with the other LOA announcements that we would hear.  It just has to be this coming week.....
