Icing on the Cake

Laiklie is what we call at our house "The Icing on the Cake!" She brings us so much joy and was the perfect addition to our family. She had her big 4th Birthday yesterday!! I can't believe my BABY is 4!! She told everyone all day that it was her birthday and even made a new also 4 yr. old friend at Winco as I bagged my groceries!:) She is so funny. She was SUPER EXCITED about presents this year. Everyone she opened was her "favorite" and "just what I wanted!"

Because we celebrated her birthday with family on Friday, yesterday was kind-of just a normal run around with mommy day. We did go to the ranch to haul calves with dad.....you can tell in the cupcake and blowing out candles pictures how dirty her face is from being at the ranch. Then, since I had mutual the kids stayed home and watched her new Tinkerbell Movie. She seemed to have a great day!

I thought I would tell you all just a little about Laiklie that you may or may not know. She loves the color pink. She loves purses, zhu zhu pets, make-up and watching TV. She thinks her name is spelled ABC. She is often found bullying her brothers to the point that they are both in tears. She loves to do ANYTHING the big kids are doing and had a very hard time when they got to go to school and she didn't. She has been dressing herself and picking out her own clothes from the time she could open the dresser (which has resulted in some pretty interesting outfits!). She tells me when she thinks her hair is ugly. She is stubborn, determined and definitely the "boss" of our house. We love her so much and can't imagine life without her!

One funny thing she said yesterday (this age is my very favorite for funny things they say!), she came running in the house yelling, "Mom, dis is sewious!" I asked what was serious and she said, "da kitty cat is awl da way at da top of da tree. We can't yet dis be happening!" What a funny little thing!:)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BIG GIRL BABY!!:)
