This week we’re up to the letter N and…
NINE!
Jonalyn turned nine on Monday. Can’t believe my baby is that old. Since we knew we’d be driving home that day and my parents would be away at my sister’s house to celebrate my niece’s birthday the next day, we decided to have our party before we left on vacation.
Here she is, with her purple casts. We go back to the hospital Thursday to see if she needs to get these back on again.
Jonalyn and her butterfly cake. There’s a long story behind it, but I won’t bore you with it. Let’s just say I’m shocked it turned out this well.
Blowing out the candles. I wonder what she wished for?? Mommy wished she wasn’t so heavy!
Love this picture of her. She does look like a nine year old!
She got a sweater for the winter…
A pony purse…
And Dora pajamas.
She also got sand toys for the beach and some magnet toys. I can’t believe how big my baby is getting and what a lovely girl she is. NINE is a great age to be!

She’s beautiful! Love the pics. What are the casts for? I’ll have to look back and see if you explained them in another post. At least they are both walking casts!

Looks like a lot of fun… Found your blog through the barn door –I think that it was called…
You wrote about Little House on the Prairie.
I will have to check out your book. Being a southerner… we have lots of log cabin stories.
Blessings!
