4!

Our Emily turned 4 last week and I'm still in denial about it!! She, on the other hand, couldn't be more excited. She thinks she can do anything now that she's four. She keeps saying, "this is pretty hard, but I can do it because I'm 4 now." I love her new found confidence ;) And we're milking it for all it's worth. We remind her, "now that you're 4, you should be able to try everything on your plate," etc. Ha!

Now about this 4 year old... She's sweet, silly, sassy, spunky, smart, and spirited! She loves everything having to do with superheroes and princesses, loves to dance, play with dolls, dress ups, and stickers, and would probably watch kids youtube all day if I let her (don't worry... she only gets it for a few minutes each morning)! She does not like fire, eating foods that are even a little bit hot (or eating most foods in general), getting her face wet, or shots.  She is incredibly thoughtful and loving toward her sister and is usually very patient with her. She's going through a pretty whiny phase right now, but other than that she's an all around sweetheart and totally fun to be around! We love her to death!

Last Tuesday, Emily woke up to breakfast in bed, 4 balloons, and presents! We had preschool on her birthday so we got to celebrate with treats there and then I took her for a surprise mommy/daughter date to get manicures and pedicures. She LOVED it and asked if we could go back for her next birthday. I see a new tradition in the future! For her birthday dinner she chose chick-fil-a, her favorite! It was a perfect day!

Stay tuned for pictures from her super cute superhero party!!
