My sweet baby girl......turned 4!!

Hard to believe she is four! Four just seems so much older than three and under LOL :)

She is pretty proud to be four now! She decided she no longer wants to use the booster chair at the table. She tried to get out of going in the carseat.....but we had to not let that one go, yet.

We celebrated as a family on her real birthday with going to Boston Pizza, and they brought her a special cake. And then the following day we had her two little friends over....Ashlyn and Julia (twins). It was a simple birthday. The girls played all afternoon, we made their own pizzas, had cake and ice cream, and did gifts. I feel slightly guilty for not having something major organized, but I think Sydnie was quite pleased with her day.......here's some pics.........

At the restaurant ........




making/decorating the cake: Sydnie looked through a book I have of cakes, and picked this one out.....I thought it was quite cute! And it was actually really simple to do!! :)

the pizza party......Login and Chante' came for a bit, too.....

It was all fun and play while daddy was away.......(well a lot of fun..)

But we sure miss daddy, and wish he was here to join in on our fun!

The weather is getting nicer and nicer, and even though there was a bit of a chill to the air, the sun was shining and it was quite nice out there today!! So the kids and I had a picnic just outside of our place......we have a couple of "feilds" that we can choose from!



Then later today, we got to spend more time outside have a hot dog roast over at Crystal's!



Sydnie loved the lady bugs, they all found a ton of them! However, in the end Sydnie was throwing them in the fire! To which us adults said "oh poor lady bugs".....and she replied, "don't worry, they'll die quickly"........LOL

Friends came to visit!!

We were blessed this past weekend with having some good friends come to visit us. It was a relaxing time.

Unfortunately, Emily got a hold of the chicken pox......so her and I stayed home while the others went to the science centre.
