The baby bug turns 14!

 And gets a phone! That involved Alli finding us a good used phone, which went to Adi, Asia phone down to Frankie, and Frankie’s phone down to Delaney. And 2 hours on the phone with the most patient and wonderful T-Mobile operator ever. With so much shuffling it took forever to make sure everything transferred over to the phone before wiping the next phone and making sure everything transferred over again. 

Anyway, when that was finally done, we wrapped up her new phone and let her open it. 
Matt was in a meeting, so we gathered around him and sang to her for the first time that day and she was so surprised by her gift. 
This was our 4th snow day, but our roads were all clear. We gave the phone to her early because she wanted to have a sissy day and go shopping and get lunch, so we let her have her phone for their festivities. 
She got a Crumbl gift card from her young women leaders. ❤️
Hot stuff. 
Adi said she remembered pictures at Crumbl but then forgot the rest of the day. She tried. 🤷‍♀️

D asked for Adi’s pizza for dinner and crepes with Nutella, whipped cream, and strawberries for dessert. I don’t know what it says about them that they put Nutella and whipped cream on them, but it can’t be good. 
We tried our best to put a few candles in her crepes. 
Good enough. 
I can’t believe our baby is 14. And then again, I can. She’s so fun and funny and smart and moody. She’s the best. 
And she likes really weird gifts. 
Like this plague doctor stuffie. 
So for her birthday she got a whole week off of school, Henry cuddles, and a new phone. Not a bad haul for a fresh 14 year old.
