Happy Birthday Whitney!

February 25th, 2005 Whitney Ann Swensen entered this world wailing and it didn't stop for a number of years! Whitney was adorable, but she had a set of lungs that never seemed to need to rest. She cried and cried, all day long, day after day, month after month. We tried every old wives tale we could and finally at about 5 months, she just stopped and became a very enjoyable baby. Whitney has had it rough over the last 6 years. She was born with blocked tear ducts that required surgery at 18 months old, she got her first stitches in her eyebrow at 2, and her second set in her lip at 3.
Whitney is a sweet sister. She loves to play dolls with Hillary and just about anything with Kemery, as long as Kemery doesn't mess anything up. She is a very smart girl. Her kindergarten teacher calls her "a teachers dream." She loves school and learning new things. She just learned to tie her shoes and does very well. She enjoys singing and making up her own songs. Whitney is going to be our little athlete. She has a lot of natural ability when it comes to any sport.
We love having Whitney in our family and can't imagine life without her adorable smile and cute little voice.
LOVE YOU LITTLE LADY! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

She has always loved baths, and still does.

She's a fan of the great outdoors as well.

Headed off to school today!
