Brinley got to celebrate her birthday this year with her cousin Sarah! Their birthdays are 3 days apart so we had one big party. She was soooo excited. She could not wait to unwrap her presents and eat her cake!
This is such a great picture of this face! She makes it often. It says a million words. It usually means "Look at me, I am pretty cool". She is quite proud of her stash of presents. Between her parents and her grandparents she got quite a few clothes for summer. I was worried that she would be dissapointed to be getting clothes for her birthday, but she was thrilled. She kept making the funniest comments every time she unwrapped another article of clothing. She does love clothes so I guess I am not too surprised.
This was the hit present of the night. She got a vintage cash register! (vintage in more ways than one...I found it at the DI for $3.00. It was a great success. I don't know why we think we need to spend lots of money on toys!! At one point in the night we had all 5 of our kids (yes even Kylee and Emilee) playing "store" with the cash register!
Brinley wanted a princess cake, so this is what we came up with!
Some days I wish I could freeze her! She is so much fun and so fun to talk to. I love to hear her funny comments and perspective on life. She is very loved in our family!!

Brinley wanted a princess cake, so this is what we came up with! Some of the things Brinley loves at the age of 4:
* Her baby dolls - she plays all day long with her babies while everyone else is at school *
* Hot dogs - luckily I buy turkey hot dogs so she's not dead of a heart attack yet! She scoots the bar stool over and microwaves her own. For some reason she loves to feed them to the neighbor kids too *
* playing "PBS kids" and "paint" on the computer *
*Her grandpa's and uncles - always has *
* The DI - I have trained her well. She will say "Mom, lets go get me something new at the DI".
* Quarters - she will do almost anything for a quarter *
* She still loves a good game of UNO *
* wearing either her swimming suit or princess dress ups all day *
