On the afternoon of Wednesday, December 18, 2007, Emily, Ansley, and I made our way down to the creeper room after Emily’s Christmas party. When I arrived Bailey was very excited to see me. We started by passing out the cup cakes (Emily helped me make the cupcakes on Tuesday night) and then singing Happy Birthday to each girl. Bailey of course tore into her cupcake while Ansley was much more reserved for a while. Ms, Jessie helped with the cupcake party. After the party was through, we headed to the van. I spoke with John on the way home, and we discussed going over to see Granny. So swung by the house to pick up cups for the girls, the girls birthday cakes and birthday presents. Starting this year we started the tradition that even though the kids have their big party with their friends, on there actual birthday we give family presents and have a family meal. It was really nice. Since we were going to be at Granny’s on their birthday, I wanted to bring everything to have their 
celebration. When we arrived, Emily, Ansley, and Bailey enjoyed playing on Granny’s air mattress in the living room. Soon John arrived and it was time to feed the little ones. After they were fed, we all headed downstairs to check on Gran. Once we were in the basement, we said hi to Gran and worked on getting Emily fed while Mrs. J worked on getting Gran ready. Once Emily ate, John and I took a few minutes to eat some beef stew. After that we let the girls open the presents. Bailey got an ABC play stand and a silver bracelet with a heart on it that was engraved with her initials from John and myself. Ansley got an animal train and a silver bracelet with a heart on it that was engraved with her initials from John and myself. On her birthday, I took Emily to Babies R Us where she picked out a set of passies for Ansley and some crayons for Bailey that she gave to them after they opened their
other gifts. Emily helped the little ones open their gifts. While the gifts were being opened, John worked on getting them out of the packages so that the girls could play. After some playing with the new toys, it was cake time. First we sang happy birthday to Ansley and gave her cake to her. Then we followed by singing Happy Birthday to Bailey. Both girls really enjoyed their cakes and after they had worked on them a while, I gave them baths and put on their jammies so that John could take all the girls home. Once John left with the girls, I took Gran to the mall to do some of his Christmas shopping.
