I can't believe you are 4 years old! The last 4 years sure have been a roller coaster ride! Some days, you talk and act like a teenager. You have grown so much this past year! You love to help me out at home by doing laundry, setting the table, putting clothes away, folding diapers, sweeping, and taking care of Mason. You love to be read to and look at books. Some of your favorite books are Fancy Nancy, Pinkalicious, and anything that has to do with a princess. You love shoes just like your momma and you love dresses! Right now you are in tap, ballet, and gymnastic and I think your favorite thing is picking out which leotard you are going to wear to class. You are so strong willed and spirited! Even though this can make things extremely hard right now I keep telling myself that one day those characteristics are going to make you very successful! :-)
Even though you love dress up, wearing lip gloss, painting your fingernails, and all things fashion, you also love to be outside and get dirty. Daddy built a large sandbox that you spend hours in just digging and building. You loved helping Daddy with the garden this year and didn't mind getting dirt under your fingernails. Haiden is a soccer star and you really look up to him. You love playing soccer and baseball yourself and are really good at it!
You are getting ready to be a big sister again and watching your excitement is so much fun! Before we told you that Mommy was going to have a baby you came up to me one day and said, "Mommy, there's a baby girl in your belly!" I can't wait to see if it is a boy or a girl and I know you are going to be a great big sister!
Mommy and Daddy love you so much Miss Ella!
