Happy 4th Birthday Savannah Ranae!

Today our little Savannah is four years old! I honestly can't believe it. She was just about two years old when I met Jason and she and I had a really great bond from day one. I have had the great opportunity to watch this little girl grow up so much and I love it. She has went from a little tiny, timid, toddler to a funny, outgoing, sassy four year old it was seemed to be a blink of an eye. This little girl tends to get left out from time to time, everyone else has someone born close to them and she's all alone. However, she has never let that effect her, it seems to have made her even more outgoing and funny. She doesn't care what anyone thinks and she marches to her own drum. I'm always interested to see what dress up outfit she will be wearing every time she runs up to the attic because I know that means an outfit change is happening. The outfits are never "normal" and it sums up her personality so well. She is truly our most carefree child and I wouldn't trade it for the world. I have to say, my favorite part of her birthday is when Jason retells the story of how she got her name. Her mom's favorite show was Glee and she loved how outgoing Santana Lopez was, so they planned on naming her Santana. Jason normally tells people Savannah was a compromise, but that's not quite what happened. You see, Savannah was born via c-section so mom was a little out of it and left Jason in charge of saying the name-he was apparently very tired. He told them Santana and the nurse said "Savannah?" and he said "Yup!" so, now her name is Savannah. No going back now! I have to say though, Savannah is fitting for her it's just perfect for this girl! Now onto our fun little family tradition of naming our four favorite things about this little girl. First, I love that she doesn't care what people think. She went out in a Harley Quinn dress up shirt, Power Rangers PJ bottoms, and rain boots a few days ago-she got some comments and she proudly said "I picked this out!". Second, I love that she always finds something to do-I've been sick the passed few weeks and she will keep not only herself busy but will get Ryker and Skyler involved too-today after preschool she was teaching them the words to "I'm a little Teapot". Third, I love the way she loves everyone. She will make cards and crafts for people in our family just because it is so cute! Lastly, the fourth and final reason we love this girl, she is the most creative child I have ever met. All she wanted for her birthday was craft supplies and dress up clothes! She isn't big on toys but dress up clothes and crafts are her favorite things ever. She will just dress up for hours and it's the cutest thing ever. I can't wait to see what this girl does with her life because I know it'll be amazing. Happy birthday Savannah!
