Natalie is FOUR

Natalie turned four yesterday! She has been waiting for her birthday for a long time, and as of yesterday, she is convinced that she is now taller. Before she went to bed on her last night as a three-year-old, she ran up to Max and said, "Max! Can you believe I'm going to be bigger than you tomorrow?!"

She chose an art theme for her birthday party over the weekend. I tried my best at art-themed goodies, and she got a lot of fun art kits for presents which have been keeping her busy over the last few days. She was brave and stood by herself while we all sang "Happy Birthday," but I thought it was sweet that she asked for me to hold her hand for a little support while she blew out her candles.

We celebrated on her actual birthday with presents from us in the morning, donuts for breakfast, pizza for supper, and cake for dessert. We had a great day celebrating our big girl!
