Happy 4th Birthday to Jean

This past weekend we celebrated our darling Jean's 4th birthday.

She is so much fun - loves to dance and party!  I just want to share some of the amazing pictures from her party; many are courtesy of Great-Aunt Janie (aka GA Janie). 
Even the boys were not afraid to celebrate "Princess-Style"!

This is precious... sharing a moment with Jean as she opens her presents.

Jean's Princess Party was a perfect success!  We enjoyed some great family time and celebrated our little girl.  It doesn't seem very long ago that we were travelling back and forth from the Neonatal Intensive Care unit at the Civic Hospital in Ottawa, hoping to take our little baby girl home with us.  Those days were sad and long but now we look back and see how happy and healthy she has become.  That experienced taught us that life is precious and to enjoy our children each and every day.  It is going by way too fast but I am loving every minute of it!

Celebrating Halloween McGregor-Style

   


I just noticed that there are two pictures of Jean in that mix of cutie-pie costumes!  On Halloween evening we toured around Renfrew and area visiting family, friends and neighbours.  It is very difficult to fit all of our loved-ones into the tour but we do our best. Top left is Jean (Snow White), Alex (Batman), Grace (Hawaiin Girl), Jean (again), bottom left is our niece, Allie (Ladybug), our nephew Noah (Duck), our other nephew, Ross (Dragon) and Ian (Batman).  We had a great night too much candy, quickly chats and a bit of craziness at GA Janie and GU Bill's!  As usual, we end our evening with a cup of tea and more treats at Grandma Ann and Grandpa Jim's.
