Leah turned 3!

My little friend Leah turned 3 on Friday, July 4th. I decided that her party was an event that I couldn't miss...even if I had been in surgery just 30 hours before it! It helped that her family takes very good care of me and made sure I had a comfy chair/lounger available at all times. The kids had been given the heads up that I wouldn't be my usual active self. Simon asked, "So she's not going to be Hyper Susie?!" They were all very gentle with me. Here are a few photos of the precious 3 year old!

Isn't she just too cute?!

Princess Leah!

I've taken it as my official role as Leah's most frilly of aunts to make sure that she has the appropriate accessories needed to be as girlie as she wishes! Her birthday gift this year was a trunk full princess dress up clothes - tutu, tiara, high heels, and jewels included! :)
