Happy Birthday Evie!

Ever wonder what a fresh four year old looks like? Here's Evie first thing on the morning of her birthday. What a surprise! More presents!
Annalise is so happy to have pancakes on a weekday morning. She must have eaten 4 or 5. Watch out Oliver. Check it out, now that Evie is four, she eats in a "grown up chair" and Annalise has graduated to the "big girl chair". I guess this means we can put the booster away. Unfortunately, Annalise doesn't have the hang of sitting still yet. We will have to bungee cord her into the big girl chair.
First, she thought she would like to open her presents after preschool. But, as her pile sat beside her all of breakfast, she decided that she should open them before she goes to school. Mom and Dad gave her a watch and a book on telling time.
Next was a puzzle with 100 pieces and this interestinb bamboo tile thing. If we were living in a more eco friendly place, like Madison, this would be all the rage. Can you tell we are trying to find things to keep her busy this winter?
The family tradition of the "car wash" was waiting for Evie when she woke up this morning We all had to run through it before we got dressed.
