Sophie’s big day







Sophie turned 4 today! She has been so excited about today, I think we talked about her turning 4 for so long, she actually thought she was turning 5 ๐Ÿ˜‰ Since they don’t make a Max and Ruby cake at WalMart, Sophie settled for second place Dora. Hopefully, next year they’ll have a KaiLan cake, instead! Sophie’s big present this year was a sweet Schwinn StingRay bicycle. Purple and pink with some kickin’ purple training wheels. She was so surprised, she had no idea and had not even asked for a bike for her big day. But her list was so small, “I want a kitty for my birt-day”, we had to get a bit creative. Looks like we scored big, the girl was thrilled to get up on the big, purple low- rider. She even took it for a few trips around the house, no help required!
Happy Birthday Miss Sophie Lu, we LOVE you! ๐Ÿ™‚
