Now that we’ve somewhat accepted the fact that our little baby is 4 years old, it’s time to recap all of her birthday celebrations. First up, Chris and I gave our presents to her on her birthday morning. We probably won’t do that again…she wasn’t very excited or alert!

Yes, we’re the parents who buy practical gifts alongside fun toys and games. This year’s practical gifts were new underwear and an outfit.

Avery is so into the Disney princesses. But what little girl isn’t? We recently watched Tangled. She liked it so much that we got the DVD for her. For full disclosure, Mommy and Daddy liked the movie, too!

When we saw the classic Cootie game in the store, we couldn’t resist buying it for our little cootie.

Finally, we really splurged this year and bought a swingset for our backyard. She loves spending time at the park, so we’re sure she’ll get many years of enjoyment out of this gift. The challenging part will be when Chris and our dads put the set together in a few weeks!
