Crista, Kate still listens to the Frances books on cd almost every day in her rest time. Grammy & Grampy, scroll down to see what Kate chose to wear for her birthday and for her friend party the next weekend. :)
Good morning Birthday Girl! Breakfast request: crock pot oatmeal, bacon, raisins, apple juice and four cheerios.
She chose a Mermaid Birthday. I couldn't bring myself to have a Disney-themed party with her friends, but I did rent Little Mermaid for her to watch in the afternoon with her siblings.

Family supper and presents. Unwrapping the ocean-in-a-bag Meg made, complete
with a floating mermaid constructed out of paper.
Nate bought her a new bubble wand.
Our family four-year-old birthday tradition is that each kid gets his/her own picture Bible, a "church bag" to carry it in, and a 4-drawer container to store allowance. I started this because at our church four is the age when kids outgrow the nursery and begin attending the first half of the worship service and children's church. Of course Kate has been coming into the first half of "big church" with us for almost a year and I've been handing her a quarter on the spot during the offering, but she was still excited about the Bible and the allowance (well, mostly the allowance.) Friend Party
Mermaid Cake
I wish I had hired a videographer. The whole party was so hilarious. These are four funny little girls!
After coloring and over-glittering a mermaid picture and playing a mermaid boardgame (thanks Mema and Pappy!) the party goers went outside for a dip. Evidently, wet hair is very important to mermaids.
The drowsy guys, totally unimpressed by the beautiful creatures sunbathing near by.We love you, Kate. Happy Birthday!!
I wish Olivia could have been there. I can't decide whether or not to show her the pictures.
