Eight

Happy Number Eight Suzie!

The baby turns eight today. This is the first time Suzie's b-day has fallen on a school day so we had to rush through things a bit this morning. Suz didn't seem to mind.

Yes, she is wearing different pajamas here. She was actually ready for school. Her Christmas party at school involves wearing pajamas all day so she still gets to spend her B-day in her jammies.

If you're keeping score...

We had our first casualty of the season a couple of days ago. Suzie landed on a piece of ice at her friends house and did a faceplant on the sidewalk. No permanent damage but you wouldn't believe it by looking. The poor baby has been home from school being spoiled and waiting for the swelling to go down. She didn't want pictures at first but then decided Grandma and Grandpa should see. Of course, the first thing Mom said after that was "and we should scrapbook it!" So, if you're keeping track, ICE-1 and SUZIE-0.

The first day

And of course, the requisite scraped knee.
