Alma is 4

Our "big kid" is actually getting big.  Alma was overjoyed to become four and celebrate all day with family.  Below is the last picture of her as a three year old before she went off to bed.

 We celebrated with cupcakes first thing in the morning (Joshua's brilliant idea), then we played with toys (a geo-lacing gift from James), Alma went to ballet practice, we had a party with our family, and even went window shopping downtown with Nana.  A great birthday for a terrific kiddo.  Later in the week, Alma, Nana and I attended The Nutcracker ballet and had lunch at the Hotel Bethlehem.  The following weekend, we celebrated Nana's birthday with lunch and even more cake.  Birthday bonanza!
