Aria....the middle child....

Aria's babyhood is coming to a close, since a real baby will arrive in the next couple weeks...we have been nostalgic for Aria's little-ness lately.  she's so little, and not so big yet...

First things First - Aria's Birthday-December 27th

Aria smiled so big on her birthday!!  Previously, she shied away from pictures, but she was such a happy and thankful birthday girl.  3 years old!!!  What a hunny.

And a belly pic for y'all...I know you wanted it.....so there it is, Joc, 8 months pregnant. And Hy, Cully, and Aria too.  

PICS!

In the spirit of consistency, especially since we are moving soon - far from family and and friends, I hereby vow to update the family blog....at least monthy....

Never thought this would actually happen!!!  But, abolishing and actually outlawing a nap for Aria, she totally fell asleep AT the counter at dinner!!!  And there was no stopping her - I was like screaming and jumping and clapping "Aria - stay awake, eat your pizza, want some candy?" And nothing!!!

At Thanksgiving, Ellie and Aria got their own real wine glasses and sat at the the head of the big table with the grown ups. 

Aria is so proud of her big sis, Ellie was the angel in her Christmas show.

Typical me.

forgot the camera for halloween, luckily our friends had brains in their heads and brought theirs.  here is aria, with no costume on, running for her life with the candy bag....
