Birthdays

Lauren is very excited (to put it mildly) about her birthday coming. She has been ready since Christmas. And now that her Mimi just had a birthday - oh boy - is she even more ready. We have told her that she has to wait because after Mimi's birthday is Mommy's birthday and then it is her turn. (The girls in this family have their birthday's on the 3rd of the month in order - First my moms on March 3rd, then mine on April 3rd, then Lauren's on May 3rd.) So now when we go anywhere and see any stranger at a store she has to make sure they know the birthday order of our family. It goes like this - somebody says, "hi" to Lauren. Lauren then says, "First it is my Mimi's birthday, and then my Mommy's birthday, and then it will be MY birthday!" If she is really into it, then she will continue on with, "after my birthday, it will be daddy's birthday and then it will be Connor's birthday."
We have asked her what she wants for her birthday and she is very certain that she wants flowers - ORANGE ones! She has also added that she would like a pink cake and maybe balloons. I asked her if she wanted any presents and she looked at me like I was crazy and said, "Of course!".
