Elsie turns 4!

Yes, that's right, my sweet pie is officially no longer a toddler. The truth is, I haven't considered her a toddler for some time now. The toddler clothes certainly don't fit anymore! Still, now her age has even caught up with her, and I'll admit that it's all passing by way too quickly. That's my excuse for months without posting anything here! Our days are definitely keeping us busy! Still, I know there are grandparents just itching for an update here, especially since we're not big on road trips during the winter...so, here you go! I'll let the pictures do the talking...

Doesn't she look so grown up?
