Four For Sure
I can’t believe I’ve blogged about my daughter’s second birthday, and her third, and now she’s FOUR! She’s grown up so much in the last year. When I wrote about her on her third birthday she was such a mix of little and big. Now she’s so independent. Four for sure. She gets herself ready for kindy, packs her bag and kisses me goodbye with barely a “See ya’ Mum!” I’m glad I’m still home full time for her though. It’s lovely to be the one to drop her off and pick her up from kindy (even if have to drag her away most days because it’s the awesome-est place in the world).
We celebrated with family this year, and her choice was a bbq at the rainforest – with a ladybug cake. That’s my girl. I love that she wanted to be outdoors, exploring. We had a wonderful time walking through the rainforest together, especially since a certain awesome aunty gave her new gumboots to stomp around in! (We {heart} gumboots. Thanks Sis!)
I know I’m biased, but she’s a really special kid, and I’m so glad I get to be her Mum.
A ladybug was the symbol on my kindy locker
Happy birthday to your little one … enjoy this year. Four is such a fun age!
It’s her locker symbol too Kirsty!!
Nice cake!! I have made two lady bug cakes thus far for my step daughters.
Where did you have the BBQ? Looks like a great spot.
Aww she is gorgeous. Happy 4th birthday !
I can’t believe my wee babies will be 4 in 6 weeks , OMG the change over the last 11 months has been awesome.

love the ladybug cake.Happy Birthday! 4 is such as awesome age
My littlest just turned two and we, too spent it outdoors. I say it’s OK to brag just a bit — our little sweeties need our love!
Congratulations! Both to you and your beautiful 4yo. What a fabulous milestone. Ladybirds are one of my favourite insects! – Especially ones made from cake
LOVE that cake… going to steal that idea for sure!
Sounds like you all had a wonderful day of celebration!

My youngest turns 4 in a month today. Time flies so quickly. What a lovely way to mark a special day. I love the cake too. I’m apparently making a ‘whale cake’ for my boy. Thank goodness for those Womens’ Weekly cake books …

It’s great that Gran was up there for her birthday. Hope you all had a great time. Did you know that your mother was sometimes called Ladybird? Mainly, because of your dad being called Beetle.
Kindy is such a great place. At drop off I never wanted to leave myself.
