Mattea - 4 years old


Time for her update! She turned 4 in July...and had quite the month to remember! Going on vacation, then coming home and having her cousins and Auntie Darla come and stay with us for 12 whole days! It was an action packed month especially for a 4 year old!:-D

 At her 4 year checkup she was 44.5 inches tall and weighed 41.5 lbs. So still super tall, but slimming down!

She is still loving to read and do schoolwork and we are gearing up to start our first year of "real" school in September!

 She is playing soccer this summer, and has been quite the little goal scorer! That is...when she actually tries...which is only about half the time:-P She is quite good and scores almost every time she actually concentrates on the game but half the time seems more concerned with watching the other players and perfecting her run (ie. looking all pretty while doing it...lol). Adding to Daddy's frustration of coaching a whole team of little girls who are all doing the same thing! Lol...

 Mattea absolutely loved having an older girl cousin around! She idolized Kenna...and still talks about her nonstop!
We went with a My Little Pony theme for her birthday party...focusing on rainbows in honour of one of her favourite ponies, Rainbow Dash. She got a new bike for her birthday, which she carefully selected based on the following criteria...Bell? Check. Streamers? Check. Basket? Check. Bonus...multi-coloured wheels and pedals! She prompted named...Rainbow Dash (surprise surprise:-P).

Tea, the brains of the operation! She sure did have a whirl wind month in July! We were so lucky to be there for her b-day! We miss her so much.
