"If you spend the majority of your days in the company of babies, toddlers, tweens or teens, then your happiness will be directly proportional to your ability to laugh often and enjoy the chaos. The child-rearing years, in particular, are meant to be hectic, playful, and fun!"

The Many Laker Baker Birthdays


We celebrated Laken's Birthday with the relatives the weekend of Clara's Baptism as her birthday was the very next day. Gammy made this beautiful quilt for her newly pink room. Amy gave her the pretty jewels. She got many generous gifts including: a swimsuit, sleeping bag, Hello Kitty stuff and a piggy bank that Madeline and Constance painted that has sadly broke.

Then, she received a strawberry shortcake doll swimming pool set from Chrissy and Ben in the mail. She was so excited!



On her birthday we celebrated at home. She had dance that day, so we gave her a new black leotard to wear. She got a new camping air mattress and her brothers gave her this pretend art set for her American dolls.




The very next weekend she had her girlfriends over for a party. Look at the cake she decorated all by herself!






All the girls singing, "Happy Birthday!" She loves her girlfriends!





Again, she received many generous gifts. Lots of Barbies and Strawberry Shortcake sets. She loves this Barbie that is a dog trainer.
