I haven’t gotten around to posting these yet.. although I have been thinking about them for much of the week. Gabby turned 4 last Friday and she has since been telling everyone “I four, then I will be five”, and yes, I am sure that before we realise it another year will have passed and she will be 5. This actually makes me so sad, Its not that I don’t want her to grow up, but she really wasn’t a baby long enough so for now I will enjoy her being 4 and watch with amazement what this year brings for her.

She got a bike for her birthday (with a Dora helmet, of course!) and although she loved it, because it means she can ride with her big sisters now.. she was just a little disappointed that it wasn’t BLUE! She is not a girly girl by any means my Gabby, as much as I try to dress her up, she much prefers tracksuit pants and runners, she wont let me do her hair in pigtails or ribbons and insists on wearing it in either a low ponytail or a braid down the back. Her fringe grows so quickly that it is hanging in her eyes most all of the time, but she is amazing and beautiful and so smart (I know I am probably biased, but really she is!). Each of my babies have qualities that make me love them so much more, and with Gabby its when ever she looks at me with those big brown eyes, it kills me and she could get away with just about anything!
