Dear Beanie,

Dear Beanie,
You are FOUR years old today!!!  That's 48 months old bugger!  You had such a fun day today!!  Mommy and Daddy made a "birthday door" for you to run through as a surprise when you woke up and you loved it!  For your special birthday breakfast daddy made you a pancake with sprinkles and you loved blowing out your candle and us singing Happy Birthday to you.  You are one lucky chick. :)

You are the light of my life and I am so blessed to be your mama.  I truly feel that I was born to be your mom.  The love and spirit between us is undeniable and I can't imagine my life without you.  You are so filled with joy, light and happiness.  You are incredibly creative, funny, sweet and kind.  At four years old you:

- Are roughly 39" tall and weigh 32 lbs. 
- You wear a size 8 shoe, 4T pants and size 5 shirts.
- You are left handed and have begun to color really well!  You LOVE to color and could sit at the table for a good hour.  You stay in the lines so well now.
- You can write your name and write mommy as well.  If I tell you letters you can write out anything.
- You can count from 1-10 in French, Spanish and German and can also say many other things in all three languages. 
- You still insist that I sing "Baby Mine" and "Lullaby Baby Blue" when you go to bed (and I don't fight it because I love rubbing my hands through your hair and singing you lullabies)
- You are insanely sweet and loving and tell me multiple times a day that you love me or that I'm so sweet.
- You love to dance and sing. :)
- You're a pro at riding your big girl bike and love to do so.
- You never nap and haven't for well over a year.
- You don't love to share with your baby sister.
- You LOVE "mommy days" and I do too :)

You are SO loved that I want to squeeze the stuffins out of you.  You are a crazy, fun, lunatic and I love ever single inch of you and every breath you take.  You are insanely loved my sweet Wynn Caroline.  Happy 4th birthday my precious love. 

My Baby Mine,
Mama

4th Birthday Party!!

Wynn had her 4th birthday party on Saturday at an indoor playground and had SO.MUCH.FUN!!  We had so many family and friends come to celebrate with her and it made her so happy. :)  My sister, Auntie Mimi, made her the most amazing My Little Pony cake and she keeps saying that was her favorite part of the day.  So blessed to have another year with my sweet first born. :)

Awesome My Little Pony cake (thanks Mimi!!)

What a weekend!!

We had such a fantastic, fun filled weekend!  Wynnie's 4th birthday is on Wednesday so we had her party this past Saturday.  We had it at in indoor playground and it was PERFECT for the kiddos!  They ran around like crazy, ate pizza and yummy cake and cupcakes that my sister made for her.  She is obsessed with My Little Ponies so of course she had to have a pony party. :)  I will post a bunch of pics from the party tonight but the other fun thing that Wynn got to do this weekend for her birthday was go to Build a Bear!

You would have thought that she hit the jackpot!  She loved picking out her purple kitty, named Cubby Princess, and getting to stuff her, bathe her and pick out her outfit and dress her.  Here's a few pics:

First Day of Preschool!

Wynn started her first day at her new preschool today! She was super excited and looked like such a big girl. Last year she went two mornings a week but this year she is going three afternoons/week. I'm eager to see how she adjusts to not having any quiet time for those three days since she usually at least rests during the afternoon for an hour or so. She ran right in, gave me a smooch and sent me on my way. She's so independent and I love that about her. :) I honestly can't believe that she's going to be

FOUR in two weeks. Where have the years gone???
