Lily's Birthday

Lily had a fabulous fourth birthday! (over a month ago... sorry for the delay) She talked about her birthday coming up but she didn't want to know when it was because she wanted it to be a surprise. We woke her us by singing "Happy Birthday" to her. Then we let her open her presents. She was thrilled with all of them! She got some "Pinkalicious" books, a tinkerbell costume, a new quilt, some crafts, polly pockets, a new shirt, some tights, and some money. She was fun to watch open everything because she gets so excited! She wanted to wear her new shirt and tights and she had to have her hair in "pinktails". Then she headed off to preschool (which she LOVES). I made her some "pinkalicious" cupcakes for her to take to preschool to share with her friends. She was super excited about having cupcakes for the treat! After preschool we spent the afternoon playing with her new toys. After a dinner of hot dogs, which was Lily's choice, we had CHOCOLATE cupcakes and then went to Ollie's soccer game where we shared more cupcakes. Lily had a great birthday! I just can't believe that she's already four! I don't know where the time has gone. She is a delight to our family. Her enthusiasm for life is contagious. She brings us great joy!

P.S. Lily is into "Pinkalicious" right now but I don't think her favorite color is actually pink. When you ask her her favorite color she will say "all of them" but from watching what she chooses to wear I would have to guess that it's yellow. She really does think that pigtails are called pinktails and I don't want to tell her otherwise. And she loves CHOCOLATE. :)
