Lorelai Elizabeth Paxton : Age 4

Well, Miss Lorelai is doing well and good and I think to start her story here, we will take you back to November. It was probably the biggest month of Lorelai's life yet, first she was asked to be in a wedding in June. Knowing that weddings mean Gone with Wind dresses, she gave an exuberant "YES" to the bride and was thrilled. This past Saturday we went to find her Flower's Girl dress. Sam, (the bride) found a beautiful, simple and innocent looking dress. Needless to say my girl will look like princess, and probably will end up making mommy cry!


After the big question, the time came to take flight to Walt Disney World in Florida. What an exciting trip for us all, but especially Lorelai becuase she is at that magical age where anything is possible and imagination blends with reality. What better place to experience that than in Disney! We spent a week going throughout the parks and Lorelai loved every minute. From meeting all her favorite characters to riding all the rides. I think probably my favorite moment from the trip was our first day in Magic Kingdom. We had arrived just in time to see a parade which captured the kids attention immidiately. So when it was all over Randall (my husband) picked Lorelai up and put her on his shoulders (See pic.1), we rounded the corner and she saw Cinderella's castle for the first time. He mounth fell open and she put her hands on her cheeks, big tears filled her eyes and she said "Oh Mommy, Oh Daddy, it's as breathtaking and beautiful as I dreamed it would be. Thank you for bringing me here." And folks that was enough to make all the hassle and hustle of the airports and buses worth it. She also got to eat dinner with each of the princesses, Cinderella, Belle, Ariel, Aurora and Snow White. What an experience that was for her!(see pics below). She told me when we left that she was ready to go back anytime!


December was a busy time for Lorelai, she had the big part in our Christmas program. Which I am happy to say she pulled off brilliantly! January meant back to pre-school and AWANA which she loves and looks forward to each week. And also beginning dance lessons, much to Daddy's chagrin! (see pics. below).


Lorelai has really grown in her interests and now likes to watch a multitude of TV shows that Mommy would never have thought she'd like. Doctor Who happens to be her favorite at the moment! She aslo has her first crush...on a celebrity, Taylor Lautner. He plays Jacob Black in the Twilight movies. We also started the process of reistering her for Kindergarten. DO I FEEL OLD!
