Happy Birthday B!

My sweet niece B turned the big 5 yesterday, or as she says, "I'm one whole hand!" She was the first grandchild for our family, and we were SO ecstatic when my sister and bro-in-law gave us the news. They had been trying to pregnant for a while and underwent some fertility treatments before finally conceiving. Whatever they did must have cleaned the pipes because they are soon expecting baby #3 and haven't had any problems since B with getting prego. She must have been the good luck charm!

B is a great big sister (although she does her share of instigating like any older sibling) and will be starting kindergarten soon. She is funny, adventurous, sensitive, smart, and very caring and loving. I can't wait to see how she does in school and what happens in the next five years!

Da* loves you!




Our first picture together!




Silly baby!




Finally a big sister!




One of my favorite pictures of her - check out the pants!




*B couldn't say "Tía" at first so she called me "Da." My fam thought it was hilarious and still calls me Da on occasion. :)
