Parenting Milestones

My baby girl — the oldest one — is turning 14 tomorrow. We celebrated her birthday over the weekend with some of her closest friends. The girl received a digital camera for her birthday, and it takes videos. I didn’t realize that, but it didn’t take her very long to put the new camera to good use. They filmed some skits and posted them on YouTube.com. They had fun.

Here she is with her birthday cake:

And for my actual baby girl (the youngest one), she went to softball practice tonight (Sunday) and had barely begun warming up when she decided to catch a ball her sister (the middle one) threw. Unfortunately, the little one caught the ball with her mouth. She ended up with a bloody nose and not one but TWO fat lips.

And the oldest one had a special awards dinner last Tuesday. The cool thing — I had received this exact same award back when I was in eighth grade. She missed the last track meet of the season to attend the dinner. Here she is with one of her friends who also received the award.

Realizing that her sister was going to have a bunch of her friends over, the middle child begged and pleaded for permission to leave. She sought refuge at a friend’s house for most of the weekend. Here is a picture of her and said friend taken earlier this year:

And last but not least, a shot of Justin hamming it up for the camera:
