Happy Birthday, Jacqueline

The 24th of February will be Jacqueline's forth birthday, but I wanted to celebrate it a little early here on Athenamama so that this entry would be eligible for inclusion in this week's Friday Ark at The Modulator.

The birthday tradition around here mandates an entry dedicated to the birthday girl, (or in Angel's case, birthday boy,) that is comprised mainly of pictures documenting their life thus far. After you finished with all the great pictures of my little baby, be sure to go wish her a happy birthday in person by using the Official Angel and Jackie Webcam.

So, without further ado, I give you Jacqueline...

Let's begin with my baby's very first picture. She was so tiny, (less than one and a half pounds,) that I feared Thalia would kill her thinking she was a mouse.
Thalia pounces on poor unsuspecting baby Jackie.
Jackie chose her daddy before we even paid for her, and as you can see here, once she arrive at her new home she spent every moment she could in his presence.
Jacqueline's brother Angel is as dear to her as her daddy, maybe even more so. She spends every minute of every day with her big brother.
She also loves her big sister Thalia. She and Thali love to wrestle, and there is no doubt that Jackie considers Thali as a member of our pack.
Jackie learned early that she needed to go for walks with her daddy and big brother. Here she is being a big girl with her new leash and collar on her very first walk.
Before I knew it, my little girl had blossomed into a beautiful young lady...
...but, she she is still her daddy's little girl, and follows him no matter where he goes.
She has a grand sense of adventure...
...but she also loves to just stay home, and "kick it with the crew".
She takes her bath like a big girl...
...but likes the drying part the best.
She is queen of the backyard..
...but sometimes lets Mariah get to the ball first.
But only sometimes.

So, there's my baby in all her glory. She's an affectionate little cuss, and I love her to death.
