One of the best things about having older kids is their excitement when it is someone's birthday. Of course Adeline had no idea what was happening, but she woke up extra happy in the morning when all her brothers were gathered around oohing and aahing, saying Happy Birthday, and just smothering her with loves.
We loved celebrating her all day. We went to church where she was acknowledged in Relief Society (she is like the mascot of the ward since she was born right when our new ward was organized). She fell asleep on the way home so we transferred her to her bed where she only slept for about 15 more minutes. Unfortunately, that caused for an emotional girl the rest of the day. (the million pictures ahead will show that)
We went to the store the day before with the intent of buying a couple of books for her gifts, but when we walked down the doll isle, we died. She was obsessed with all the babies and wanted to hug them all. Justin was blown away since he had never seen anything like it. So we bought her a doll. :)
We had pumpkin cake, opened her presents, and loved and rocked her the rest of the day. We lover her so.
