My little girl turned 4!!!

Honestly please if somebody knows how to slow time down - I need to know. I cannot believe my little girl is 4! Hallie has always seemed like my little baby. She is FOUR now and well on her way to being just a "little girl". It is so hard for me, as a mom to know that I can never get that time back with my kids. I can't ever have a 3-year-old Hallie again. That probably sounds lame to some of you... but it honestly makes me really sad. I mean seriously... wasn't I just in high school? It seems so weird to me that now I am watching my children grow up before my eyes and starting to feel OLD! How did that happen? ANYWAY... "yadda, yadda, yadda"...


* HALLIE * GRACE *
Top 10 things I LOVE about MY Hals: (in no particular order)
  1. She has the most contageous laugh you have ever heard.
    2. She really and truly believes that she's a "princess". (and she is, of course)
    3. Her eyes twinkle when she smiles. We always say she smiles with her eyes.
    4. She is such a free spirit. Anything goes with Hal.
    5. She is so smart. She learns things right along with her big brother.
    6. Her dancing! (You think I'm kidding - but she really can dance)
    7. I can always make her smile - even when she's really, really mad... all I have to do is smile at her and she'll smile back. (probably my favorite)
    8. Her undying love and excitement for life.
    9. She has an unbelievable imagination. She could sing to herself for hours.
    10. She cries for a good 10 minutes if anyone leaves the house without saying "goodbye" to her. She has a very tender heart.

I cannot imagine my life without this girl! She brings peace and happiness into our home that could never be replaced. I love her with all the pieces of my heart.
Happy Birthday, Hallie girl!

WE LOVE YOU!!

OK how cute are those pictures! What a sweet heart. I can't believe how big all our kids are getting. Oh by the way did you count how many times you used honestly. I think it's contagious.

Hallie girl how I love you! Happy birthday my sweet little niece! Amy, that was such a sweet tribute to your cute little Hals. She is definitely all those things and more! Those pictures of her are seriously adorable. I was just saying to Chad the other day how grown up she looks. All of a sudden she has become a little girl before my eyes! We wish we could have been there to celebrate but we will see you in a couple of weeks. (I can't wait!) Love you all soooo much!

Hi Sweetheart! Wow, what a great tribute to our sweet little girl. That black & white picture of Hallie is absolutely priceless. Those 10 things you listed were right on the money. She truly is 1 in a million, but of course I feel that way about you as well. Love you kiddo! Thanks for keeping us updated on what's going on. I love it.
