My Alexandra turned four! She has been my baby for so long, it is sometimes surprising to see what a little girl she has turned into. When I picked her up to move her to her bed the other night, she just looked so long. I love that she still lets me baby her. She is insistent on cuddle time and I think the neck holding thing may never end, which is fine with me. She is like her sister in so many ways, but so different too. She loves being a girl, dressing up, makeup, singing, dancing, her dolls. But she is just a little more wild than Izzie. She has a little naughty streak that shines through. You really have to love her for it. She is so smart, and independent. She makes the perfect playmate. If Izzie wants the pink one, Alexandra enthusiastically says she wants whatever color is left. Izzie usually gets pink. More often than not she is the boy in the song, the prince in during make-believe. I heard that doesn't last, but as for now she is completely content. She is so unselfish and loving. She is patient beyond words. She will run errands with us, sitting in the car all day and not a peep. I love that she sings at the top of her lungs, out of tune and kind of screechy, but having a blast. She is the first to tell you that she loves you. Usually a series of confessions with hugs and wet kisses (on the lips) ending with "I love you thiiiis much" and "I love you to reeses pieces". She is so good with Oliver, although she is quite sad that she is not big enough to carry him around yet. She is so athletic and energetic. She is always so fun to be around. She says the funniest things all the time. I really have to start writing them down. I love my little four year old. I wish I could freeze them all in all of their adorable stages. It goes way too fast. Happy Birthday Allie!
