Happy Birthday, Laela Grace!

Happy 4th Birthday to Laela Grace! Laela is so proud to tell everyone that she is 4 years old! Most days, she acts much older. Laela loves to learn new things and really takes in a lot of information at home and school. She knows the pledge, number of stars and stripes on the US flag, the difference between the Texas and US flag, ALL letters and sounds, understands shorter/longer, taller, smaller/bigger, more/less, LOVES songs and dance, writes her name, mom, dad, allie, dhillon, and much more! This kid loves school and learning! Laela is the most awesome BIG sister....well, most days! She loves to check on Dhillon and make sure that he is 'making good choices'. If not, she is the first to tell him NO. We are working more on her sharing with him, but she does have a valid about him getting slobber on her stuff! About Laela right now... *Clothes: Size 5T or girls Small (right now ALL she wants to wear are DRESSES!) *Shoes: Size 10 (Mostly flip-flops or sandals. It is tough to get her to wear close-toed shoes.) *Favorite evening activity: Playing games with us or going outside to play a game or ball or going for a walk. *Talking: All day, everyday! *Sleep Habits: Naps are 1-2 hours a day and she usually hits the bed at ~8:00 pm (Followed by 20-30 minutes of talking). Her wake up time is ~6:30am (She runs into our bedroom and says good morning and asks for a drink or to play or just tells us that it is time to get up. *Favorite Drink(s): Milk, Grape Juice, yogurt drinks, Capri Sun, and anything we are drinking. *Favorite characters: Chipmunks, Mickey Mouse, and ... Santa *Favorite Stuffed Animal: Zooey (pink elephant from the zoo) *Favorite Show: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Big Bang Theory. She also loves to watch the movie Santa Paws! *Word she always mis-pronounces: Un-u-sep-able...UNACCEPTABLE. Funny because I tell her that something is unacceptable when she is doing something she is not supposed to. Then, when you least expect it, she tells you that it is unusepable! *Weird Habit: OCD!!! She has to have things in the same spot or same order or done in the same routine. Oh man! Just like her momma! Oh! Check out Laela's cupcakes to share with her school friends! Not many girls want blue and green frosting with worms! :) Notice hers...2nd row from the top, 2nd over from the right. It has FOUR worms!!! Laela Grace....Mommy, Daddy, Dhillon, and Allie Mae LOVE you very much! We love your crazy, fun, loving, caring, inquisite, sassy, and persistent personality. We would not be complete without you in our life and you are such a blessing.
