Four years old!!

What a great day with a big, four year old girl! We had a great time celebrating with Sofie.

Up early, checking out the presents. A big girl bike!! Sofie bestowed her trike on William.

Mac and cheese for breakfast. We told her she could have anything she wanted and were a little surprised when it was mac and cheese. We tried to get her to change her mind, but she was determined. What the heck, you only turn 4 once!

A guitar!

Peter was the champion of daddies today, out in the 100+ degree heat 4 times walking back and forth as Sofie rode in front of the house. She was SO excited (as much as this picture doesn't reflect that).

They're off!

Riding to the neighborhood playground.

The requested dinner was Chinese noodles. I was happy to comply. After it was served, I was told that Chinese noodles came with tomato sauce. Really? William wanted some too.

Birthday girl!

Cake!!

Some pre-birthday party pictures. Pretending to sleep in William's crib.
