Happy Birthday Katelyn!!

Last week in our week of birthdays, Katelyn turned 4!! She had her family party on her birthday and then had her friends come over the next day. She had to wear her birthday hat that she got from preschool.

Who doesn't love playdough?
Oh, yes that's a nerf gun. This was Dave's idea and she got two so they could play together. She absolutely loves them and both she and Kelsey have played with them almost everyday.
And a few more games to play with mom while Kelsey is off at school all day and Addison is down for her naps.
Now for the cake.

Her first birthday party

We were a little preoccupied last year with Addison being born so we waited another year before having her friends over for a birthday party. She picked all the friends she wanted, and had it all planned. We went and picked out her plates and what she wanted to do. She chose to have a glorified playdate with presents and and it came off great. Aside from the power being out almost the whole time, everyone came and a great time was had by all. They had pizza and cupcakes and ice cream and opened presents of course. Thanks to all her friends for coming to her party.

All Katelyn's friends.

Everyone together.

Katelyn, you are getting to be such a big girl and we are so proud of the person you are becoming. You are always happy no matter what and your smile lights up the room. You are such a big help with your little sister who loves you so much. You are growing up so fast now that you are the big sister at home to help mom. We love you so much Katelyn, our little "peanut."
