It is interesting and fun to see how she changes with each new year. Right now she is very loving and affectionate towards us, towards Benjamin and Juliane. She still has her spicy, fiesty personality and continues to be very determined and stubborn. I keep reminding myself that those are great qualities for the future. Overall, she is a happy, healthy four-year old who loves to be outside, to be making art projects and be around friends and family.
At her Dr. appt. she weighed in at 38 lbs. (65%) and 41.5 inches (85%)
Josie's best friend, Bryn, turned four a few days before her so the girls decided to have another joint party. This time "princess" was the theme but true to Josie's eclectic personality, Mikey Mouse, Dinosaurs and Dragons were also represented.
Here are the birthday girls with their good friend, Boyan.
It was fun to see all the girls in their "party dresses"
But Josie is never too dressed up for a little monkeying around :)
There were foam cut-out crafts so that all the princes and princesses could make their own crown. Even Benjamin got in on the action.

The kids may have been a bit too young to really whack hard enough to actally break the pinata but they had a lot of fun trying.
Josie cheering on Bryn. The lesson at this age is it doesn't matter who breaks it as long as it breaks eventually.
Finally, the pinata broke and the kids had fun collecting the goodies.
They also played "put the princess in the castle" (AKA: pin the tail on the donkey)
Thanks Dawna and Kurt for the fun games and hosting in your amazing backyard!
And on her actual birthday I told her she got to choose what/where we ate. Her choice: Indian food followed by an ice cream cone at the nearby Baskin Robbins.
HAPPY 4th BIRTHDAY JOSIE!!
