Funny things Abigail does at 4: Repeats everything, it's rather scary. Loves to pretend play with her babies and loving family people. Loves Dora the Explorer and Hello Kitty. Can be extremely loving and sweet, and extremely dramatic. Loves her brother so much, and likes to help take care of him. Still shy but brother being so friendly has helped. Most of all loves to jump on the giant trampoline.  

Party #2

We invited Abi's preschool friends over for Abi's b-day celebration/play date on Monday. We made leis out of yarn, paper flowers, and straws.

Ben is such a stud in a grass skirt :)

Thank goodness it didn't rain, otherwise I would have had to do some panic backup planning.

Both parties were so much fun, I almost forgot how much work went into them. I think Abi had an uber special birthday this year. Somehow it makes my heart feel better to have had so much friend and family time, helps me not miss my mom so much. Abi's first b-day without Grandma JoAnn. Although, my mom had already bought her a b-day card before she passed so my Dad and I say Abi got a card from heaven. 

I was super impressed with my Dad, I told him to go to Costco and pick out some PJ's and a color book for Abi's present, he did just that and then some. Great job pops! And much thanks to Grandma Vicki for helping with both parties.

Happy 4th B-day Abigail

Our sweet girl had a wonderful b-day party with lots of friends, family, and fun. We are lucky to be surrounded by so many wonderful people that love us and our children.

Ben was ready to ham it up.

Lucky girl got two cakes. Sherry and Katie made this one-so cute.

I made the Hello Kitty cake (supposed to look like a pink grass skirt).

 This Abi face cracks me up. She hates attention.

Note to all: If you take silly pictures of yourself on my camera I will post them for the world to see.

The party was Hula Girl theme, by my choice, with Abi's approval

as long as I made a Hello Kitty cake.

Abi's real b-day with Mom, Dad, and brother.

The giant doll house was a hit, and she got tons of furniture to go inside..
