Happy Birthday, My Dear Super Gretchen!

She will fight crime whenever a toy is taken, (but really if it is only taken from her), she will give into tiredness whenever daunting things come to call, and whenever their is a mess she will get one of her other siblings to do the clean up...it's a bird, it's a plane, it's a new 4 YEAR OLD:

Supergirl


She has no fear of wearing her costume in public and when asked by the grocery store clerk, "Could that be supergirl?!" Her reply, "Nope it's just a costume." Up, up , and away
Back off

Happy birthday funny girl. Your parents love you and that's always what matters.

For fun, here are some oldies, but goodies:

She expanded my stomach the most and weighed in as my biggest 8.14lbs

is that pregnant picture for real? You look super skinny with a basketball. I just get large everywhere.

Beautiful pictures. I definitely agree with Janet's comment on the prego stomach.....basically, I hate you. We called and left a message for Gretchen today since we were travelling all day yesterday and in a non-time zone. We're sad we missed the birthday (you do still have the NC 794-8540 right?) It looks like it was a fun birthday! We love you Gretchen!!!!

Total basketball tummy. I remember you looking like that with Micah too - you make a very cute preggo girl. Glad Gretchen had a fun day, we miss you, crazy guys!
