Alyssa turns 4

We celebrated Alyssa's birthday in the evening after all of the Christmas festivities were done, like usual. We took away all of the Christmas decorations and decorated with birthday decorations instead. The girls loved the balloons and party hats.

Here is Alyssa with her opened presents.

We let her choose a cake from Sam's Club because she asks us to get her one every time we go there. She chose a Hello Kitty cake/cupcake combo.

Here is the birthday girl.

We have enjoyed having Alyssa as part of our family these past four years. She loves dressing up, dancing, singing, playing with Ashley, playing anything outside, and spending time with Mommy and Daddy. She hates wearing socks and long sleeves (especially sweatshirts), any kind of mint or peppermint flavored food, and not having her choice in clothing and food. We think she is a typical 3 year old turning 4 besides being so much taller. She is a lot of fun to have around and she really makes us laugh with some of the things that she says and does.
