Avery Mae Turns 4!

Miss Avery Mae turned 4 on December 14th, 2016!  We celebrated her birthday by having a fun build-a-bear party at our house!  We invited her closest friends and ordered them each a stuffed animal of their choosing.  We enjoyed pizza for lunch, stuffed the animals, had cookie cake and ice cream and busted open a piñata.  Avery seemed to have a great birthday!

Avery is such a sweet heart.  She has a very kind heart and always loves to give and get hugs from her family.  She is going to pre-school now 2 days a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8-1:00.  In the fall she had a hard time going and really didn't want to leave the house.  She would cry all morning long on school days.  She has been so much better lately though and isn't even really crying anymore.  We are so proud of her!  She loves to play with Paisley, sometimes a little too much. :) But, Paisley does love to watch her and follows her everywhere.  Avery can't wait for her big sisters to get home from school everyday.  She always asks me "when are the girls coming home?"  She plays "class" and "nurse" with them a lot and they also do lots of crafts.  Avery enjoys coloring and painting.  Pretty much anything crafty Avery loves.  So, she and Sydney get along well.  Avery also loves her cousin Ty so much.  They are definitely BFFs.  They get along so well and play so nicely together. They hardly ever fight and are always up to do whatever the other one wants.  I hope they stay BFFs for a very long time.  They have so much fun together!  We are so thankful that our Avery Mae came into this world 4 years ago.  We love you to the moon and back sweet girl!!!!

Sweet birthday girl with her yummy cookie cake!

This cake turned out so cute and matched her bear perfectly!

Jayda took pictures for me the day of the party.  She did a pretty good job!

This is what a Christmas birthday looks like! :) B-day décor on top of Christmas décor.

Sydney loves to hold Paisley too when she lets her.

Avery got a new bed, mattress, and comforter set for her 4th birthday from Mommy and Daddy!

She loves it so much!

I love the comforter set we got for her.  She didn't even want to pick it out, just told me to find something cute.  I think me and her big sisters did good.

And loving her new double stroller from Oma!  Such a big 4 year old now!
