Lauryn turned 4 on Oct. 17. It was a bit of a chaotic time, but we managed to have some major celebrating nonetheless. The Thursday before her birthday I took her into the Dr. because she wasn't feeling well and we ended up taking the ambulance to the hospital where she stayed for 2 nights. We went straight from checking her out of the hospital to pick up Paul's mom, sister, and brother at the airport.
Since her birthday was on a Sunday, we went to Incredible Pizza Saturday night. (It's like Chuck E. Cheese x 10). Then on Sunday we had a family party where we played games, had dinner, opened presents and had cake. Lauryn was a pretty happy girl, especially to be out of the hospital in time for her birthday and to have Grandma, Aunt Kalo, and Uncle Shiblon and Uncle Key here to celebrate with her.
ps - I know there are a lot of pictures of the rainbow cake, but I was really proud of it and it was quite the labor of love to make (I was up until 3 am Saturday night after two nights of very little sleep). I followed the instructions from this site: http://www.howdoesshe.com/6-layer-cake-tips
pps - In case you were wondering, Lauryn was in the hospital because she has asthma (which we didn't know). She's on a preventative medicine now, so hopefully it will make life better and she can breathe a little easier now :)

Happy belated Birthday to Lauryn! :) Hope she is feeling better. Oh, and I LOVE the cake you made! It is awesome!!!
That cake is amazing, good job! I always think of Lauryn on her birthday because we are celebrating together. Crazy that we both ended up in the hospital in the same week for 2 nights with our kids, glad everything turned out okay.
