Anna's 4th birthday

With two girls having December birthdays it's nice to take advantage of the season and have a winter/Christmas themed party.  So for Anna we did an Olaf/snowman playdate.  It was so much fun.

We made a huge batch of fake snow for the kids to play and get messy with.

We had a table full of fun foods they could use to build a snowman snack

Then we ate our snack and watched Frosty the Snowman (my favorite!)

A happy brother

We stacked up the snowman cups and had fun knocking them down

We gave the kids homemade sparkly 'snow' playdoh and an Olaf figurine.  Then we went outside for a SNOWBALL FIGHT!



Anna is becoming such a sweetheart.  She has tested us a lot as a toddler and lately we have seen many many glimpses of the incredible girl she is becoming.  

Here are some facts about Anna:

-Anna is FUNNY.  She is the comedian of the family and always ready with her quick witted observations and stories

-Anna retells the plot of every book and movie she sees over and over again.  These stories enthrall and entertain her. Her favorites are My Little Pony, Ariel, Mickey Mouse and Curious George.

-Anna is our most adventurous eater.  She will try anything.  When I am making dinner she always asks me what we are going to have and then exclaims "that sounds YUMMY!!"  Then during dinner she is constantly murmuring "this dinner is so yummy, I really like this dinner"  Except she doesn't pronounce her R's so she says 'dinnow'

-Anna also is the most interested in cooking.  She likes to spend time with me in the kitchen.

-Anna loves to have her hair wild and free.  But when forced into a hairstyle she likes braids, buns and ponytails.

-Anna is quite farsighted so she wears glasses.  

-Anna is braver than all of us.  She doesn't struggle with shyness and loves attention to the point where it worries us a bit. :)
