Alli, being our oldest, gets to experience a lot of things first out of our kids. That means she gets to set the standard for her siblings and plough the path. Setting the standard may be fun but ploughing can't be too much fun. She gets to make the mistakes and train her parents. Then she gets to disseminate this information to the younger ones. Jen and I are both second children so we don't have the experience to draw on. One thing for sure, she is getting big fast. This year was another great birthday. She had a kid party which went pretty well but being a July baby, attendance is always a problem. I remember always having that problem as a kid, not the most fun but we did have a few kids make it despite it being summer holidays. We also had a fun family celebration, and again grandma sent her home with enough things to keep he occupied for some time. Alli has been into crafty things recently and loves to make cards or other things for friends and family. Grandma thought it prudent to expand her craft collection, and boy did it expand. Once we got home Alli just felt like laying it all out on her craft table so she could soak it all in.
And as I have mentioned on several occasions my favourite part is the video Jen puts together. And since I love it so much I feel like sharing. Happy birthday Alli.
