I honestly look forward to Leila’s birthday all year. For me, it marks not only another wonderful year of being a mom, but it also marks the beginning of spring and is twice the celebration as we have both Leila and Sawyer to spoil. This year it was a little bit more like Christmas since Thea and Quincy also received some gifts…Quincy who was only two days away from his own birthday, and Thea who likes to steal other’s new toys. It was tons of fun watching the kids enjoy each other, and their new things and I particularly enjoyed the time spent with my awesome family!
