My baby turns 4 tomorrow!

God gave us the most precious gift, nearly 4 years ago...Grace Elizabeth, you continue to delight, surprise, entertain, (frustrate at times ;), and amaze us with your spunk, your intelligence and your love for life! I am so blessed to be your mother and I pray every day that you know how much we love you, no matter what we go through or how many time outs we have, at the end of the day, we love you and always will! I've watched you grow into a wonderful little girl, you've blossomed so much in the last year as you became a big sister. There is no doubt you adore your baby brother and he is so lucky to have you...we all are. Happy Birthday baby girl!!!!

So tiny and beautiful the day she was born...

Cute as a button at 1...

I swear she hit the terrible two's THE DAY she turned 2

A little princess at 3...

And now such a big girl...

We had a carnival birthday party for her on Saturday...utter delight when she saw what we were making her ticket booth out of...Before...


and After...

There were balloon animals...this is Tiffany saying "Holy Cow!" to Grace's request for a balloon Swan Lake :)

some eating...

some face painting...

and some fishing, along with ball toss, bean bag toss and pin the nose on the clown!

Cake!


Pure Joy
