Happy #5 to Tylee!!

Man, our little girl is 5! She is growing into such a sweet, smart, beautiful, happy, helpful, little gal!! Not sure what I would do without my Tylee Kate. She is such a sweetheart and always wants to choose the right and make me and her dad happy. As she grows and is learning right from wrong, whats okay, and whats not okay- she does so well to remember how to be kind and how to be obedient. She takes in what we teach her and applies it into her life. ie, the lie monster... if we ever tease her she will correct us and tell us it's not okay to lie. Or when we taught her about Satan and how he wants you to do naughty things, she will tell brothers- oh, you don't want to listen to Satan, you want to listen to Jesus. Or if any of us say "hate" or "stupid" she will gasp and say, "Mom, you can't say hate words". How I love her efforts in making Jesus and her parents happy. She loves to make believe. "Brothers, now pretend that you said, 'oh, she is such a pretty princess'" and the boys will always say what she tells them to say as they play "Pretend". She is a big initiator in keeping all their minds using their imagination. Whenever a brother is crying she is right there to comfort and soothe. "oh-oh-oh, its okay-ay-ay". She wants to be a mommy. At first she told me she wants to have 64 kids when she gets older. The other day I asked her again and she said she actually didn't want any. "I just don't want to have to take care of all of them." We decided to meet in the middle, she agreed to have 30 kids. haha... She talks non-stop. Her mind is always running. She makes me proud in all that she does. I will always love my Tylee no matter what! So grateful for my princess, my pal, my best friend!!!! She is my angel! Happy Birthday Tylee Kate!!!

We had a fun festive day today. So happy GramaSue was able to come join in on the fun! We celebrated and opened family presents that morning. She had gymnastics and went on a lunch date with Grama. She chose Cafe Rio. When she got home it was time to party with friends! She had some friends come over and we played some fun games. We had ICE PAINTING, SNOWBALL TOSS, DO YOU WANNA BUILD A SNOWMAN? (the girls got a kick out of this one- they had a race to see who could wrap the girl in t.p. first and top with beanie scarf and carrot nose-- they tied, but the girls were getting very competitive, lol) we then had cake and ice cream, opened presents and did ELSA FREEZE DANCE- which was also so fun because I got a cute video of all the girls busting out to LET IT GO. 

It was a very great day! Fun celebrating the birth of our little girlie!
