Melanie Turns Four!

Melanie turned four! She was a little sick on her big day, but that didn't stop her from having fun! Melanie is such a great kid. I am so glad that she is my first born. She helps me so much! She enjoys doing favors for me (most of the time), teaching her sisters new things, and leading the pack. She is probably our most tender hearted of them all. She reminds me of myself as a kid in some ways. I was also very sensitive. She gets so sad when we are disappointed in her (Doesn't stop her from throwing fits though). She also is OBSESSED with princesses. I am not exaggerating. She pretends to be a princess almost all day.... and night. Some day she will grow out of it, so I am just enjoying the imagination.

You can tell how sick she feels. Poor thing. Didn't stop her from putting on princess accessories!

Birthday cake pancakes!

We went to a place called Bounce U. It was bounce with Santa day. Of course the girls were too scared to actually talk to him, but they enjoyed the cookie decorating part afterwards.

Maybe it's because I just had a baby, but I didn't feel like doing a big birthday party. So I thought it would be fun to have our besties come with us.

After Bounce U, we headed over to Chick-Fila for lunch, where they enjoyed the playplace and a milkshake of course! Melanie loved the dress up clothes Carson and Claire got for her. Notice how she rolls up her pants and shirt? She always says, "princesses don't wear clothes under there dresses mom!" (said in a very annoyed voice!)

My mom was visiting, and was a big help with Blakely!
