Happy 4th Birthday to Maren!

Time sure flies. I can't believe that our baby Maren is four-years-old today. Wasn't just the other day that she was a tiny 6 lb. baby? Now she's four and getting ready to start Pre-Kindergarten. She's still very small, but she's super-sweet and smart. Maren had really been looking forward to her birthday this year because she was determined to get her very own American Girl doll. She was not disappointed--thanks to Nana Maren now has Rebecca. We also took the girls to Build-a-Bear for their annual visit. Maren picked out a blue bear, which she named "Bluebeary". Carsyn got a bear with peace signs all over it and named it "Peace of Cake". Logan chose a dog with a Jonas Brothers bandanna that she named "Joe". They had a ton of fun!
