Olivia is so cute she calls herself a little big girl!! This has been the LONG awaited 4th birthday!! She has been asking for it since the summer and was very anxious for Christmas to come since we said it was after Christmas. So we started a count down on our calendar for January. She was so excited last night she had a hard time sleeping. She kept worrying that Mommy was making her cake or doing something without her. She woke up very early this morning and came out to the kitchen and saw her HUGE Dora balloon!! She was so excited to see all her presents so as soon as everyone was gathered she got right to opening presents! Thank you to everyone who sent a present she was so excited by every gift!!

Olivia had her first dance class today so one of her presents was her new dance outfit. She is learning ballet and tap. This is just to see how she likes it. I spoke to her teacher after class and she said Olivia did GREAT and Olivia was very excited about class!!

Tom and I had a good time reminiscing that 4 years ago it was a very cold cold night and we anxiously went to the hospital to welcome our first baby girl. We brought her home in the snow and it was a very hard first night. We should have known from that first night that our little girl did not like sleep. Then on her first birthday we got snow. On her second birthday we had an ice storm and had no power and spent the night away from home. I don't remember what the weather did on her third birthday so I think we lucked out. Finally on her fourth birthday the coldest temperatures in a decade!! Olivia is our winter baby and each year she reminds us!
Olivia amazes us each and every day!! Her memorization of scriptures, songs, stories, and preschool concepts are fun to see. Her imagination is flourishing. Her smile is contagious and she just loves to laugh. She is our beautiful little girl and we can't believe how big she is getting!
