Three years ago today (ok, yesterday by the time I'm posting, the pictures are from the actual birthday day), Lela joined us in this big wide world.
Happy Birthday, Lela!
We celebrated twice, once with cupcakes for her friends at school and once with Grandma and Granddaddy at dinner time. And of course more cake and singing.
Cake makes everyone happy!
Lela loved all her cards and the sweet things people wrote in them, and her wonderful presents too.
One of the most exciting gifts for both girls was the new sheets and comforter...
....Because that meant that it was time to turn "Resli's room" in to "Resli and Lela's room", and to move Lela in to a big girl bed!
In case you didn't see it, this is what Resli's room used to look like.
And here's what it looks like now!
They were pretty psyched about it when they saw it!
And they're looking forward to sleeping in the same room.
Of course, as I write this they're supposed to be napping and all I hear is singing, giggling and what I fear is the sound of four little feet jumping on beds!

The earliest pictures I've ever seen of Lela are of her smiling, so that baby looks totally unfamiliar. I'm so glad that she's such a happy kid so we can see more of that smile. And that ROOM! Geez, that makes me want a sister...not that my roommate is too bad. :)
Your OWN room!!!! Well, your own HALF a room. That's better than NO room ... and halfway on the road to your very own WHOLE room. You guys look wonderful together ... and happy. Love, Ellie and Grandadick.
Amy, in Lela's early days she was known as the Prime Minister. http://leladorothyward.blogspot.com/2007/11/we-shall-fight-them-on-beaches.html
HAPPY BDAY LELA! There's no way it was 3 (+) years ago. Surely it was just a few months. Then again, those cheeks and those curls didn't just happen; they needed some serious growing time!
I LOVE the new room. What lucky girls you both are.
