It's been a busy and fun month for the Donoghues. Our baby boy turned 4 years old!

| Happy to be 4! |
His birthday was a school day, so we woke up a little early to have pancakes and strawberries before rushing him off to school. Jamie brought donuts for his class treat during his prep; it's so nice that his building is so close to his preschool! Afterward he came home to open presents, and got his big gift from Mom and Dad... Jamie once again living vicariously through Ben with a Jurassic Park powerwheel! We had cupcakes as he requested, and quickly learned he only wanted the frosting. I walked away for a few minutes and came back to find 4 cupcakes with all the frosting licked off!

Birthday boy!

Ben is still a very happy-go-lucky kid who loves car washes, construction equipment and the Ninja Turtles. His favorite foods are probably yogurt, easy mac and marshmallows. He's a wonderful speaker and very into timers and schedules (yikes, wonder where that comes from!). Ben is very much the baby of our family, beloved by all. Him and Evie like to play a lot, and Maggie is like a second mom to him.

Jamie took the girls the Daddy Daughter Dance at church. Maggie had a wonderful time, Evie had a somewhat sassy night (that's putting it nicely), but eventually had fun with her friends.

| So thrilled to see her old pals! |
Maggie's school had their first dance for 4th and 5th graders, and she was so thrilled to go. I think she had the best time ever hanging with her girlfriends! It was sooo hot in the gym, so much body odor!

| Girl squad! |
The girls were invited to a birthday party at the skate rink, and were nervous about going. Dad to the rescue took them to Great Skate a few days beforehand to practice. They LOVED it!
