Kimball is 4 years old!

GUESS WHO HAD A BIRTHDAY??

Kimball turned 4 years old. She woke up pretty early because she got a sneak peek of her presents on the table the night before. She was pretty excited about her princess gear.

But even more happy about the Rapunzel doll and her long hair.

This is Kimball and her cake.  She got to pick the shape (the bundt pan), color (pink and purple), and help decorate this lovely cake. She looks a little nervous because Jack had already blown out her candles once.

So fun facts about Kimball... She has a very vivid imagination and the best memory ever, which means any movie or story or anything that she see or hears will be adapted and abridged into her own life story.  For example, after watching Alice in Wonderland she wanted some shrinking cake, so I gave her a cupcake. After eating it, she was very sad and upset that she wasn't actually shrinking.  A couple of weeks ago, she told my brother that her mom and dad put her in the fire but then Jesus came and saved her.  This was after she had seen a cartoon version of the Meshack, Shadrack, and Abednego from the Bible.  I just hope that no one calls CPS (child protective services) on Jason and I.  She also loves to say "Mom, remember when you were in my tummy?" or "remember when I got married and you were a little girl?"  Her sense of time gets a little lost in her imagination

Kimball is also a fashionista and loves to dress up.  I took her clothes shopping for her birthday and let her try on clothes and pick out one outfit.  She loved it. She ooo-ed and awed with everything she picked, but finally settled on the pink dress (the one in the cake picture).  I had to call and apologize to my mom for not being a fun shopper.  I know what she was missing. I have also had to hide Kimball's old clothes boxes because she digs into them and puts on 3 different outfits at the same time, as demonstrated in the picture.  She has on: a pair of tights, 2 shirts, a dress, and a pink fleece pull-over.  I'm hoping she will refine her tastes and then become my stylist.  She has also started picking out her own clothes, especially her pajamas - she's infatuated with her Christmas pj's and wants to wear them every night.  We love Kimball so much, and can't believe how much personality is pouring out this little girl.

She loves to watch herself performing her original songs and dances.
