Happy Birthday Byrd Family

The other day Mateo asked when our family's birthday was. Not knowing how to reply, I said, "Our family's birthday is the day Mommy and Daddy got married." Luckily Mateo was satisfied with the answer. So when our anniversary came around, I had to think what our family birthday present would be. We got a new BLU Ray DVD player along with a few new movies. I think the boys are just excited to have a dvd player that they have access to watching their movies. Aaron and I were able to celebrate as well. We went to the movies without our children which happens about once a year. We had a fun night, especially since it was completed with snow on our drive to pick up the kids. It reminds me of our anniversary get away last year.

The Byrd family has just celebrated 7 years of learning, growing and love

Congratulations! I love that you are finally getting a girl. I hope your pregnancy is going well (like, I hope you're not too sick and that your boys are being little angels).

Thanks to everyone for your sweet comments. We feel very blessed right now. As most of you have probably already guessed, we really really wanted a girl. I sure you all understand since we have three handsome boys in tow already. :)
