fours years old...

May 24, 2017...Marley is 4!
Height:  40 1/4 in.
Weight:  35.2lbs.
How did this happen?!  I cannot believe that she is already four; yet on the same hand I can't believe she's only 4!  Adam and I both said we feel as if we talk to a teenager daily so when that 4 year old behavior comes out we have to remind ourselves that she is only 4.
This past year has had us cracking up, crying and wondering where did this little ball of spunk come from?!  We wouldn't trade it for anything!  

I "interviewed" Marley today with the same questions I asked last year, and plan to until she's 18.

We started today with our 4 year doctor visit.  Unfortunately, 4 shots later and I was "not her best friend", "daddy is the best", "daddy doesn't get me shots", etc.  She proceeded the rest of the day to tell every stranger we saw, "Today is my birthday and my mommy got me shots!"
Then we went to the American Girl store and had an absolute blast!  She took her baby and we left with 2 babies and several outfits!  We had lunch at the American Girl Bistro (which I HIGHLY recommend if you have a little girl!) and loved having the babies sitting at the table with us and being "served" lunch with us!
Now we can't wait until daddy gets home this weekend and we get to celebrate with her Paw Patrol Birthday Party!
