Four years old. It is so hard to believe that my little baby girl is four! We had her birthday party this weekend. The theme was Strawberry Shortcake, one of her favorite things right now. While it was HER birthday, I got to live out one of my little inner child wishes. I have always ADORED the American Girl dolls, but never got one when I was young. Hannah has become very interested in dolls and clothes recently, so I knew it would be a good time to introduce her to them. I found a cheaper version at Toys R Us that she can play with until she is old enough to take care of the "real thing". I bought some sewing patterns to make her and her doll matching sundresses for her party. Oh, how fun was that! I really enjoyed creating them! I also made them matching pj's and robes. She is really liking the whole idea and has blast playing dress up. On future occassions she wants to help me pick out the fabric and patterns for more matching ensembles. Classic mother & daughter fun!
