Happy 4 Years Lotus!

Well, we officially have a four year old, no more pretending like Lotus loved to do. "Mommy, pretend I'm four, OK?" She had her checkup today and she's doing great! She grew 3 inches from last year and is 42.5 inches tall and 44 pounds. 90th percentile for height and weight. Some of Lotus' likes:

Favorite food:Watermelon

Favorite book: Jake Baked The Cake (she can "read" this book from start to finish)

Favorite show: Powerpuff Girls

Favorite activity: playing with the neighbors MJ and Zoe

Favorite color: pink

Lotus loves wearing dresses. We will probably be wearing fancy ones all summer. She is really learning to swim, she can blow bubbles and swim underwater. Her favorite birthday present was all the swim toys her Mimi got her. She puts her snorkel mask on and can dive down and pick up the toys at the bottom of the pool. She is so excited about her upcoming shore trip. She is also very excited about starting back at her "old school", the preschool at my hospital. She can count up to 20, knows all of her letters and sounds. She can write her name and is an excellent scissor cutter. We are very impressed with our Lolo and can't wait to see her grow! Love you little lady!

Reading all of the books Aunt B got her for her birthday:

We went to the zoo with her BFF and of course we had to wear a birthday dress:

Who goes to the zoo to see actual animals? These circles are the best part if the whole zoo according to Ollie/Lolo:

Birthday dinner at Red Robin, where she got her face painted like a fairy princess:

Riding the zoo swing and no missing shoes!

June's first time riding in the wagon. She lived it except for the hat part.
