Emma - 4 Years Old!

Time goes by so fast at times. I can remember posting on here when Emma was just 4 months old. My baby is gone and what we have now is a little girl with a mind of her own. She has a great laugh, especially when being tickled. She cannot go many places without her blankie and her blue pillow. This is a habit that will hopefully be going away this week once she turns four. We will see how well that goes.

Emma has been taking gymnastics at Gleasons's Gymnastic School for roughly the last two years. I was not surprised when she said she wanted her birthday party there. We were very happy to hear that Sasha, her usual teacher, would be the one running the party.   Well, the kids had a great time. Sasha ran the show for the first hour taking the kids through various stations. They started at the obstacle course, onto the jumping track into the pit, to the tumbling floor and finally to the large trampolines.


Emma wanted the party to have a Strawberry Shortcake theme. She wanted her usual strawberry cake and strawberry filling (mousse). Since not everyone likes strawberry cake, I changed it up a little bit.
Strawberry Shortcake's face is strawberry cake. The hat is made out of rice krispie treats. The cupcakes on the bottom are vanilla bean with a raspberry buttercream and a strawberry accent.
Emma received some more strawberry shortcake toys among many other girly things which she loves. The kids looked very sweaty and tired, but they all had a blast. Thank you to Gleasons for a great time. On to the next one...
