I'm Four Years Old... and I like to kick, stretch, and kick!

So, some of you may have seen

my Mom's post...

I am indeed four years old now.

And as tradition goes,

I birthday'd it up with Mommy on our date!

Heading out, making a crazy face, because that's just what I do these days.

Pretzels... mmm, yummy.

My coupon for my free birthday treat.

I chose a Blondie Blast.

After my treat, I decided to put on a Birthday Show.

After our date, we went home and I had gifts waiting for me!

Cash! Can't beat that.

Some Brain Quest for my mind.

And I have to look cute.
 (Thanks, Aunt Susie & Uncle Gene!)

Check out my Daddy's wrapping job... awesome.

New books... oh yeah!

Daddy was teaching me the ropes... the jump rope that is.

I think I'm definitely going to like being four.

Four Years

A Note From Mom:

Oh, little Light of mine,

another year of you blessing me beyond words

has left me in awe once more.

The wonder you hold;

the questions you ponder;

the beauty you find;

I often catch my breathe just looking at you.

My first little soul entrusted to me,

my whole being was shaken by your entrance

into this world

and I was forever changed.

I love you, Lucy Jo... 

Happy Birthday, my little Love.

Guest Post: Judah aka Little Brother

The other night the sisters and I were out for a 

night on the town.

It was pretty great.

It doesn't happen often,

but when we get out,

we live it up!

This night was no different.

Dinner was caught, cooked, and served

by my big sister, Elly.

And then the show...

oh, the brilliant talent of my sister, Lucy,

is almost too much to handle.

It was gripping!

I was so caught up in that I didn't realize that 

we actually were not out on the town,

nor were we alone.

Our mom had actually just taken us to Exploration Place

(which I must say was a bit of a relief...

I mean, look how intense my agony was!).

Once I realized that,

I really had some fun!

And apparently the sisters already 

knew about all the fun that could be had!

So much so,

that Lucy actually hung her head in sorrow

when we had to leave.

Over and out!

The Royal Party and a Dancin' Queen

Over the weekend,

we attended a Royal Birthday Party.

As you can see,

little brother is already quite a snazzy little fella.

The sis and I put on our finest dress-up clothes,

donned ourselves with the family jewels,

and helped Mommy glitz up our crowns

(toilet paper rolls and glitter paint!).

There was a princess cake,

frog cupcakes,

Pin the Lips On the Frog,

a castle to play in...

goodness,

just remembering it gets me excited!

It was a blast.

For those of you who don't know me well...

I love to dance.

Little Sis and I have dance parties regularly and 

one of our favorite songs is Funkytown.

I needed some new moves though,

so check these out!

I like to turn around a lot to make sure that Mommy sees me.

I am really enjoying this class...

even more, the tap shoes that I get to stomp around in!

Our Whirlwind of Fun

Well, since you've last heard from me, 

we've had a wedding;

acquired an Aunt;

hung out with Charli girl and Lina Jane;

celebrated Christmas;

found some cool things while walking through town;

and I began my dance class

(which you will more than likely be hearing about

for the next ten weeks...

because I LOVE it.).

Be back soon!
