Little Olivia turned 4 years old and had so much fun being the birthday girl. She loved taking donuts to her preschool class to celebrate and asked us to sing to her many times when we had a mini family party a few days before. She loved meeting grandpa for a birthday lunch and requested a birthday pedicure out of the blue. She loved waking up to a chocolate cake and Disney decorations and she especially loved her birthday party at Pump it Up with all of her favorite friends. They bounced and jumped and ran wild for a good two hours and afterwards ate cupcakes and cheetos and M&Ms. The whole birthday was Minnie Mouse themed and the red and white classic Minnie costume was on the top of Olivia's wish list. She was thrilled to open each of her presents from everyone and was so surprised that so many people thought to bring or send her a gift. It was a special week of celebrating our little lady and once again Ben and I find ourselves praying that time will slow down.
Things about Olivia at age 4:
* Olivia is very passionate about clothing. She has opinions on what she wants to wear and with what accessories and there are definitely outfits that she thinks are perfect for certain occasions. I have learned to give her two options and then make her commit.
* Livi is a dancer. She is learning quickly in her ballet class and dances around the house all day every day.
* She still loves Neenus and has added Cheezits to her list. She eats most of her calories before noon everyday and then mostly snacks.
* Olivia loves Isabelle and cries if Belle ever gets in trouble. Belle is the person she runs to if she gets her feelings hurt and her favorite thing to do everyday is find some time to play with her big sister.
* Livi has lately decided she is "scared" in the dark, or in the bathroom alone, etc, and we cannot wait until she gets over this phase.
* She is getting super fast on her micro mini and spends some time everyday outside cruising.
* Olivia has decided that she wants to marry Robin Hood and it melts my heart every time she says it. I hope she always does! Ha ha.
* Livi loves to cook and asks me most days what we can bake. She loves following the recipe and likes me to go through the check list after every ingredient.
* Olivia knows all of her letters and most of the sounds they make but is not overly interested in working on them daily. She rather run, jump, do flips and dance.
Sugar and spice and everything nice. Sounds just like our Olivia.

What a cute 4 year year old! Today is Levi's big day and we are experiencing the same hilarious and adorable highs along with a couple frustrating lows. He's also in a "scared" of the dark phase right now. What funny little kids! Happy Birthday Livi!
