Jordan’s 5th Birthday
On March 14, 2013, Jordan turned 5. But the party started early and lasted for about 2 weeks… The celebration began on March 2: Jordan got her ears pierced! She had asked for our whole family to be at the mall with her, and afterwards we all celebrated with cookies from the bakery. On March 13, […]
Merry Christmas!
March 18, 2012
Christmas 2011 was special. It was the 1st ever Christmas for both Karter & Spencer, and it was the first Christmas where Jordan compiled her list for Santa ALL by herself.
