Today was my 3rd birthday party! It was a huge success! I got lots of presents, plus all of my friends came over, we played games, and ate cake! Mom and Dad even blew up lots of balloons and hung streamers!

I got my own camera and took pictures of the party.

Grace is certainly our big girl. She spent the entire weekend showing us how big she is by trying out her new bike, pointing out letters in her name, and reading us her stories (from memory). Here are a few highlights of the festivities:

over the hill and far away.
Mother duck called “quack quack quack”,
and THREE little ducks came running back!

Today I went out to “chore”, and found a surprise waiting for me. I guess we have 3 ducks now…

2 ducks become 3

His words were an inspiration to do a better job keeping up on the blog, and also means that we’re not too late!

Springtime in the Janes house means lots of things. Easter eggs, flowers, green everywhere, warm weather, and of course – ducks.

This was our first Easter morning where the egg hunt was fully understood. And because big sister seemed to like picking up all of these eggs so much, little sister decided she loved eggs too.

And with all this green and warm weather, Easter just wouldn’t be the same without a new pair of ducks. So yet again, we’re “those crazy people with ducks”…

The girls (and the neighbors) love them, and Madelyn decided she didn’t want to be left out of all of the duck pictures. :)

Actually, she’s nine months and two weeks nearly to the day…but her 9 month photos have been kept secret over the last two weeks in preparation for the big unveiling. (Or, it took us awhile with a preschooler and baby to go through them and make the post!)

So (drum roll, please) Here is Miss Madelyn Estelle!
