Friday was Kaelin's birthday! We let her pick where we would go to dinner. She chose Red Lobster, because she wanted shrimp and crab legs! Not a cheap date! :)
She shared a dinner with Grandma Barb. Kaelin really wanted to crack the crab legs herself but she isn't quite strong enough yet!
One of the gifts we got her was a handwriting marker board. She LOVES to practice her letters.
Aunt Amy made Kaelin cupcakes for dessert :).
Kaelin got a new 'big girl' bike. She LOVES it. She was flying around our little cult-de-sac. She made too tight of a turn once and took a tumble and skinned her knees. She got back on though and we were all amazed by how well she did for her first time!Kaelin is four now! I can't believe it! While watching her Friday night, I was wiping away tears. She has grown up so much. She is an outgoing, dramatic little girl! She definitely has her own opinions.
She is so amazingly smart! Every day she surprises me with questions I don't know how to answer - Why don't we fall off the Earth because it is round? - that one is my favorite so far! She is writing her letters and knows their sounds. She loves to draw and do any kind of art project. She LOVES doing anything with stickers!! Her favorite toys are her kitchen, her Leapster, and any kind of dress up!
She really loves her Daddy! If he is home, she wants to be near him. She wants to help me cook anytime I am in the kitchen. She loves to be outside on their new swing set. She also LOVES to spend time with her best friend Abby.
She does not like chili, sitting still for more than 30 seconds, or bedtime!
Next Wednesday I attend a meeting at her new preschool. She starts pre-kindergarten 3 days a week the first week in September for 3 hours a day. She is SO excited to 'go to school'. I know she is going to do awesome! I can't believe she is ready to go to school! She is very tall for her age, wearing size 5 clothes and 10&1/2 shoes. (42" tall = 90%, and 35 lbs = 50%)
She is looking forward to her and Hailey's big birthday Luau at our house next weekend.

Wow! Another birthday. It does not seem possible that you two are parents much less parents of a preschooler. Children a such a wonderful heritage and blessing from the Lord. Cherish every moment. Love and miss you guys.
