4 years old!!

Today Mikayla Jo turned 4 years old. Early this morning I looked at her and told her happy birthday. Her response, with a big smile on her face, was "ME!", while she pointed to herself. She was pretty excited, or so I would like to think.
Papa Jim and Mama Sue came up to spend the day with the girls. They help us celebrate Mikayla's birthday, took Jennifer shopping for her birthday and of course loved on Kelly a little bit too. (Mikayla was wanting no part of this picture, she had already opened her presents by this point and did not want to stop playing for a picture!)
Opening a few presents from mama and papa.
 Mikayla loved her presents! A cake that sings "Happy Birthday" and a microwave with food. 


After a fun supper out to eat it was time for presents from mom and dad. 
A new pair of shoes! She looks thrilled, doesn't she? Mikayla has a serious issue with shoes right now. She is not a fan of them. There are about two pairs of shoes that she will wear, one of them is a pair of cat rain boots. We are hoping maybe these will become a new favorite pair, we will see.
 A "Fresh Beat Band" video. Mikayla loves that show right now. 
 Our Kayla girl is not much of a sweets eater. In fact she does not like cake or cupcakes. But she does like ice cream, so her candles went into ice cream this year! She loved it.

 Bill and I have commented often in the past few months what a blessing Mikayla is to our family. She is slowly starting to come out of her shell and lets her voice be heard! Mikayla has also grown in so many ways this year. It continues to be a joy to watch this sweet little girl grow and change.
Happy Birthday to our Kayla Jo!!
