FOUR and FABULOUS!

 I could have sworn we just got home from the hospital with our snuggly 6 lb 8 oz. little girl, but it appears she is now a spunky, sweet, smart, beautiful, creative FOUR YEAR OLD. Here is a look at all the four year old fun:


Grandma and Grandpa came a few days before her birthday and surprised her with this extra special Build-A-Bear creation, who she promptly accessorized and named Elsa, of course.

 Elsa was immediately a member of the family. Here she is sharing our special early birthday lunch at Zoe's after our Build-A-Bear creation


Liam and Rylee both have excellent timing like their older brothers and picked the week of Rylee's birthday to get really sick and give all their germs to Mommy too, so our celebration was a bit subdued, but we still managed to party.

This girl woke up READY for 4!

 ...and to open presents. Here are some of her faves:
 Anna, her new American Girl doll

 
Minnie Mouse


a Frozen blanket!!

 She got a special birthday lunch downtown with Daddy...

 And a mani/pedi at Salon Mommy...

And her choice of a Redbox movie.


Her big Cinderella bash was the following weekend:
 Of course, Mommy had some help putting together the dishes for the party.

The royal spread

 The star of the royal ball

 MYO Crowns

 An impromptu game of hopscotch broke out in the backyard

 And, if you can believe it, there were MORE PRESENTS! 

 And yummy CAKE!


Aaaaaand she's already talking about her fifth birthday.... Sigh...
