Four years old!

On August 6, our little Princess (yes, still!) turned four. And she is not shy about it at all! So far, we have informed the postman Tom and all the patrons in line, each and every stocker and customer at the grocery store, and a handful of tourists that we passed on our walk a few days after. I am amazed at how interested all of these people are - I just love living in a town like Valdez where nobody is too rushed to take a few minutes to chat with such a big girl. She is also most proud of the fact that she can *finally* chew gum, and she (palms up, hands pulsing up and down if you can just picture her) doesn't even swallow it!! So fun. I just love this age.

Ummmm..... usually, I do, anyways =).

When Kailyn woke up in the morning, she was greeted by her pink princess cake and was MOST DISAPPOINTED when I told her that was not a special breakfast for her. She had to wait the entire day to enjoy it with her friends and family... such torture for a little girl! Look at her face!
Charlie, as usual, thinks his sister absolutely hung the moon. She can always get him to laugh. He thought the face was funny, too.

For her actual birthday, we invited our local "family" over for a small dinner/ get-together. Although we've pretty much dropped off the social scene this summer, it was nice to still feel the love from so many great friends.

Still making the "party face" that the big girls taught her 2 1/2 years ago.

Uncle Sean - always a hit!

Does Hailey know that she is not going to be "Baby Hailey" much longer? She loved hanging out in Kailyn's baby bed.

Another pregnant belly.
And another... who knew the Wisner's were expecting yet another baby?
