Turning Four

This past week we celebrated our daughter's birthday, our country's birthday, and my mom's birthday. And this Saturday is my dad's birthday party. How am I supposed to lose my preggo weight with all of this cake?!

Adriana's birthday was a hot day with the temperature flirting with the 100 degree mark. So our plans to visit a kiddie water park worked out perfectly.

First, there was the waiting for Momma to get everything together. During which, I caught this moment of her and her cousin Carter watching Mickey Mouse together:

When we finally rallied the troops (and the pizza) and arrived at the park, Adriana had a ball! You know the way a child can read a book over and over or play a game a dozen times in a row? Well, one particular water slide caught her fancy, and I'm pretty confident that she went down it at least a hundred times. Literally. She also enjoyed being the line organizer and letting every child know what position they held.

"You're first. She's second. And I'm third!"

After four hours of enjoying water wonderland, you can guess who passed out on the way home.

After freshening up and donning a pink pettiskirt, an exciting item for any four year old girl, she was ready for her birthday dinner to begin. We spent the rest of the night partying like a
rock star
four year old, complete with another Cinderella cake.
