Blair's 4th Birthday!

We were super low-key for Blair's actual birthday this year because of our Disney vacation we had planned for the NEXT DAY! She had been begging us for a while to take her to Disney, so we thought her 4th birthday would be the perfect opportunity. She has been such a great big sister the past 10 months and she deserved some special one-on-one time with Mommy and Daddy.

Of course everything had to be Disney-related for this birthday. We had a Publix princess cake waiting on Blair when she got home from school and some special gifts that turned out to be essential items for our trip ;) Mommy had been planning for half of a year, literally!

Our wonderful travel agent, Kendra, even sent Blair a special box from Mickey Mouse with buttons, puzzles, and a Disney survival kit.

I love this picture picture of Blair because it shows so many things about her in one picture. The cake is princess, which she adores. She is wearing Hello Kitty pajamas which is also pretty high on our list right now. And last but not least, she is wearing her sparkly headband. This child loves a good headband. Every day she comes straight in from school and puts a headband on her head. God love her.

We saved our 4 year old check-up for after the vacation. Blair has grown SO tall since last year. She weighs 36 lbs (50-75th) and she is 39.75 inches tall (50th). She grew over 3 inches since last year! We are so proud of how well she is doing. We try to get 12 hours of sleep a night, rest for about 1.5 hour every day, play outside for 1 hour, and eat lots of fruits and veggies. We have recently tried salad, and she is digging it because she can spray her "fairy dressing" on it herself.  Blair is all about pleasing Dr. Pip, so whatever he says, she does! LOL! We need to still work our on tip-toe walking, but we have come a long way with that in the past year.  We love our Blair-bear, and we wish she would stop growing up so fast :(
