Happy Birthday Tigergirl!

Happy Birthday Tigergirl! I am having a very hard time with the fact that you are SEVEN years old. How did that happen?

I don`t have any pictures of TG as a baby on this computer so we will have to start here, just before she turned 2. We were staying at my parent`s house for the winter holidays. This was her "Christmas Dress":

Here she is a few months later, in February 2004:

These last photos are from Tigergirl`s birthday party. It was so much fun!










For the past 2 years Tigergirl has been asking to get her ears pierced. We decided that it would be a good birthday present for her this year and so that is what she got. She is so happy and proud that she can now wear earrings!
