Sweet Pea is 4!

My baby girl turned 4 earlier this month. It's been a crazy month, so I was afraid we would not get to celebrate her birthday. And she kept talking about how her cousins and Dallas friends were at her last birthday party, so I was so nervous that she would be disappointed that they wouldn't make it this year (my mother-in-law just had back surgery so the cousins couldn't make the trip and her friend Lily wasn't able to come either :( ) We lucked out that my Aunt and Uncle from Minnesota were here for her actual birthday. She helped "Grandma Cheryl" make the cake and we grilled out for dinner. It turned out to be a special celebration. (And our families from Dallas and FW called to wish her a happy day, which made her smile)

Then, since I wouldn't be up to entertaining after having a baby, we decided to host her party at a local hair salon. It was so fun to watch her and her friends dress up and just be girly for 2 hours! (I do have to add that she mentioned that her cousins were at her party LAST year) We are blessed to have met some really neat people here. And Sweet Pea has met some really sweet friends.

Baby brother slept through the entire party (and it got REALLY loud) and through lunch afterwards! I love this baby!!!
