My K is 4!

Time flies was too fast! My K had her 4th birthday yesterday. K loves the color purple, Dora, playing babies with her sister and friends, acting shy, but talking your ear off once she feels comfortable. She is a very energetic girl and makes me laugh daily. She still likes sleeping in and cuddles with her mom. She recently calls FHE -Hamily Foam Evening- and likes having "lonely" baths. (A bath all to herself.) She also likes bossing around her older siblings and enforcing rules.

It was a celebration all day long for K. When she woke up she found her presents and decorations. She got to play with her new baby stroller and baby bottles right away. She had to wait a very long time until dad came home to open the rest of her presents. She was very meticulous when opening all her presents and would rip off each piece of paper and hand it to me instead of just throwing it everywhere.

She got a new dollhouse from her Grandma and Grandpa H. It was a big hit- and even Ethan and Erin wanted to play too. She also got some accessories for her dollhouse and a new alphabet puzzle.

The new favorite toy.


A very proud K with her gigantic dollhouse.
As birthday tradition dictates, Katelyn got to pick where we went for dinner. So off to the golden arches we went. (Because it has a playground that is inside and not hot and sweaty.)


Katelyn and McDonald.

After dinner it was back home for cake and ice cream. Katelyn loved all the attention and us singing to her. Aunt Kelly and Uncle Mark came over with cousins Davis, Jack and Kenadie. The Berrett's came too. (Natalie, Londyn, and Sophie.)


She requested a chocolate cake disguised as a purple Dora shirt cake with a numeral 4 candle. There was also chocolate ice cream for the birthday girl.

We sure love our Katelyn and are glad she is part of our family. Her crazy hair and personality to match keep life interesting. She will be a great big sister in a few more months!


**Katelyn had a hard time falling asleep last night. I heard her chatting with Erin past 10pm. This morning Katelyn woke up Ethan and Erin at 7am to play dollhouse with her. I woke up to the sound of giggles and talking at 7:20. They were trying to be quiet, but it was so fun to see them all playing together. Some kids will be going to bed a little early tonight. I can hardly imagine all the excitement that Christmas is going to cause this year...

She looks SOOO much like Erin! Crazy. I can't believe our kids are 4! Where did the time go?

That is sooo cute that her brother and sister want to play with her dollhouse with her. Sweet siblings. And adorable that she and Erin stayed up late chatting. I love that.

The cake is very impressive. Do you want to make my next fun fetti cake?
