Weekend with Nana and Austin!!!

Nana and Austin came to KC for the weekend, I had a blast playing with Austin.

Austin and Kellen relaxing on Kellen's new couch that Nana got him.

Austin even got to see snow for the first time. He was super excited, kept wanting to go outside and play in it. I wish there would have been more snow so we could really play in it, but maybe he can come to my house again when we have lots of snow!!

Funny faces

I got some new games for my birthday so Austin and I had to break them in. Guess Who has become my new favorite game, Dad doesn't really like to play with me cause I legitimately win EVERY time and it makes him mad. I can't help if it if I'm just that good. The new Guess Who has different cards that you can change out like monsters, household appliances, kids, animals...etc. Some of them are really hard to ask questions cause every monster looks different. But those are the cards that I seem to be really good at.

Austin and I also did a lot of puzzles

Nana and Kellen

He wasn't in the best picture taking mood

Mommy and Kellen

Look at my brother's head... it's so round, he looks like a different kid!!

Check out that funny face!!

Man I'm getting really good at making funny faces!!!

I had such a great weekend with Nana and Austin I can't wait for Austin's little brother to get here so I give him lots of hugs and kisses when we go visit Phoenix in May. Hopefully Aunt Katelyn can come next time too. We all love and miss you guys so much!!!

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!!!

Today was my birthday... I'm finally 4!!!

I woke up to a room full of balloons, it was so cool.
Kellen and I had so much fun having a "balloon fight" in my room!!! It was the perfect way to wake up on my birthday.

Kellen and Mommy made me a birthday cake while I was at school. Kellen loved eating the batter... I'm kinda jealous that I didn't get to help lick the beaters:)

Then Mom and Kellen brought up snacks to school. They stayed around for a little bit and got to see what I do at school all day and play with my school friends

I took Mom's camera and had fun taking pictures of all my friends and my Mom!!

"Open shut and open shut give a little clap clap clap, open shut and open shut then put them in your lap lap lap." That's the song that we sing when we are getting ready for a snack or an activity at the table!

My teachers even made me a special birthday crown

See Kellen sitting in the front? He loves coming to my school and listening to Mrs. Carlisle read us books

We even got to play outside today, this was the first time in months that we have had outdoor recess. Mom and Kellen came out with us, Mrs. Carlisle said she was happy to have an extra pusher for the swings!!!

I got to eat ice cream for lunch, I had to add lots of extra sprinkles... I love my birthday!!

Kellen enjoying his lunch, he wasn't lucky enough to get ice cream for lunch, maybe on his birthday he will!!!!

I'm 4 (and of course I'm wearing my birthday Daisy shirt thanks Grandma!!)

The best birthday present was that my Nana and cousin Austin flew in to spend a couple days with us! We had to pick them up from the airport then they got to enjoy cake and presents with us!

HIPPOS!!!!!!

ummmmm

(that's the sound I make when I see a hippo and give it kisses)

Mommy got me a Mickey Mouse computer game

There is Austin... Nana says it's just about impossible to take his picture!!!

He sure did enjoy my birthday cake!! I'm so glad he was here to celebrate with me.

After I ate my cake I realized that I wasn't wearing my crown so I insisted Mom take my picture again, and insisted she lights the candles again too!!!!

I had the best birthday ever, i'm not sure how it could get any better than this year!! Thanks to everyone who helped me celebrate this year, I love you all.

MY BIRTHDAY PARTY!!!!!

Sunday I had my birthday party!!! I invited my friends Katie, Addison, Hailey (but she was sick and wasn't able to come) and my cousins.

It was a Daisy party (even though Mom didn't really find anything Daisy but Grandma did get me a Daisy shirt to wear)
First we started in the food court at the Mall for some pizza, cupcakes and presents. I got to play in the play place while we waited for all my friends to come.

Addison, Katie, and I eating pizza!!

You'd think I would be able to blow out those 4 candles really easy but it wasn't as easy as you might think. It took me quite a few times to get all 4 out!!! Man who knows what I'm gonna do when there are lots of candles on my birthday cake!!

Look whos 4!!!!!

Thank you Mom for my birthday party... it was perfect!!!

A Snow White doll from Addison

Addison also got me Trouble, Grandma and I had lots of fun playing it last night.

Katie got me a play-doh kitchen, Konnor and I made lots of yummy food with it.

Uncle Klint and Aunt Paris got me Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast movies.

Grandma got me lots of Hippo books and the best present of all.... A REAL HIPPO!!!!

She adopted a Hippo at the zoo for me, I'm so excited to go this spring and tell everyone that it's my hippo. Daddy has been telling me that he was gonna get me a real hippo but I've been worried about where it was gonna live, I didn't want it in my house out of fear that it would get me and Kellen, so a hippo at the zoo was perfect!!

After pizza we walked down to Monkey Bizness where we all got to run around and play. Kellen had lots of fun too.

I loved going down the slide!

Kellen can't wait to be big enough to play air hockey with Konnor and Uncle P

Aunt Pretty even climbed up and went down the slide

Daddy and Uncle P

Kellen climbed all the way to the top and the only way down was to come down the slide. Kourtnee was up there with him, all we could see from the bottom was Kellen's arms and legs flailing he did not want to go down that slide. Mom kept yelling telling Kourtnee to just push him down, he wasn't so happy when he got to the bottom.

Brayden, Kourtnee

Konnor, Me and Addison

Kellen was so over Monkey Bizness

Aunt Pretty was on the top level swinging the kids really fast on the swing
