And just like that...

...my biggest baby is 4.  :(



I'm not sure where is came from, but all she wanted for her birthday was a bike...oh, and a jump rope.  Opposite ends of the spectrum, no?  I was a little wary (of the bike), thinking she was a bit of a ninny and wouldn't like it...I was right.  After bursting into tears the few times she tried to get on on her birthday (and no she didn't get hurt) and every time thereafter, we should have waited a year.  But who knows, maybe once we lower the training wheels and make it more like a tricycle and she masters breaking it'll be a hit.


She was pretty happy with her Sleeping Beauty cake...which she was very specific about...had to be laying in bed.



And Uncle Joe and Aunt Mara came to celebrate.



How did these past four years fly by quicker than any of the years before?  And how I am supposed to handle them just getting faster and faster?  How can it be that this little gem is only going to be home with me for one more year?  Who the heck invented a school calendar anyway, and why?  I am NOT going to be able to handle it.

So for now I'll try and live in denial and enjoy this next wonderful year with all of my babies at home.
