Kessed woke up yesterday and the first words out of her mouth were “I’m 4 now!!”  When she came out to the kitchen, she was so excited and wanted to call everyone to tell them it was her birthday and that she was 4 now!  We assured her that people would be calling her and the first call she got (from Aunt Bek) she answered “Hello!  It’s my birthday!  I’m 4!!”

Gift from Big Sister

“real” earrings (she kept saying!) from Mommy and Daddy

Taking all the birthday calls!

At the mall ready to get ears pierced….she wasn’t too excited about it at first, though she’d been telling us for a few months that she wanted them pierced!

Daddy had a pep talk with her out in the hall and she came back in ready!

She didn’t cry a single tear!  I was amazed!

The new earrings….these are almost identical to the ones we got her except the ones we bought are bright pink!  She could have gotten the exact same ones we bought, but she chose these!  I think they’re pretty cute!

Back at home for a little party with Grandma Vera and Papa Dan…..she’ll have to have her party with friends and family in a few weeks!

Opening her gift from Grandma Cheryl and Grandpa

So glad you had a fun day, Sweet Kessed!  I loved spending every minute with you!
