Today is Lydia's 5th birthday, here she is waiting for Mommy to bring her gifts into the living room:
She was a little excited!
Blowing out 5 candles:
And showing us that she is now "a whole hand old"!
Lydia has been asking for her own pet for a few years now, and yesterday I had a lapse in judgement and bought her a guinea pig from a family that had baby ones. She named him Stripes and he actually has made a great little pet for her! His is very tame and is used to kids (the family we got him from has 4) and he makes cute noises and likes to run around on the grass. He eats lots of veggies, too, so Liddie likes to collect carrot and beet tops from the garden and picks dandelion greens to give him, too. Welcome to the family, Stripes!
Wow Heather you certainly have a beautiful family. I can't believe how much the older 2 have grown! I am certainly envious that you are raising your family if Faro, because I know first hand there is no better place!! You all look like your having the time of your lives. Sarah Bowers
