Leah is FIVE!




Wow, how time flies. I can't believe that Leah is 5. Leah is...



  • a great communicator.


  • a girl who still loves her "baby" and likes to bring her places (however, most of the time we now make "baby" stay in the car). Sometimes "baby's" name is "Morgan."


  • a girl who loves to play dress up and to wear her mommy's shoes.


  • a girl who LOVES to dance and sing.


  • a girl who loves to do crafts and play with dolls, but also loves to play in the dirt with "boy toys"


  • active in swimming, dance, and gymnastics. She is also excited to start skating lessons- even after experiencing a fall that caused her to break her right wrist!


  • a big fan of music, especially Taylor Swift. She is a sponge when it comes to music- anything from rock to country.


  • able to recognize all letters of the alphabet.

  • able to write her name, along with all the letters of the alphabet, but does need to see some letters before she writes them.


  • able to tell you her phone number and address (but still needs a little help with the house number)


  • able to tie her own shoes.

  • able to distinguish left and right.


  • still afraid of people dressed up in full costume- but this is calming down. After all, she was able to sit next to Santa this year!

  • DRAMATIC.


  • STUBBORN.

  • LOVABLE.


  • so excited to become A BIG SISTER...she told me not too long ago..."Mommy, I will always be good to her."

Happy Birthday LEAH (1 day early)!!
