Some of you may remember that last year our Gotcha Day was the day before Big Girl's birthday, and we were busy running around the city, getting papers signed, so we didn't celebrate her birthday. The other two kids' birthdays were right after Christmas, and since they didn't seem to "get" Christmas, and we were too overwhelmed anyway, we gave ourselves permission not to celebrate their birthdays last year. They've watched everyone else celebrate birthdays throughout this year, and now their birthdays are rolling around again, so it's time to see if they "get" it. You decide!

| And now... for the ritual ceremonial lighting of the birthday candles... |
 |
| It's got to be special! Everyone is gathered 'round! |
 |
| She understood how to blow on the party popper, but-- too bad-- she'd already chewed a hole in the end of it, so it didn't work. |
 |
| She understood how to blow out candles! Whoo-hoo! |
 |
| "I can't wait until it's my birthday!" |
 |
| The camera loves her! |
 |
| "What did you get?" |
 |
| Too precious! |
 |
| "Don't forget how delicious cake and ice cream is!" |
 |
| "Don't worry! I won't forget!" |
