5 YeARs oLd!

At the end of last month was lil' K's birthday! She is now 5 years old! (am I old enough to have a 5 year old?) Since her birthday she has exerted much independence, and asked if she could make all her own decisions. I replied not yet. She then asked if she could at 6...nope...7...nope...8...nope, when she got to 18...closer. I told her I still need to listen my mom, not exactly the answers she was looking for.

For her birthday we had a Princess Tea Party with friends from preschool and primary. The princesses came dressed up and my mom was kind enough to come and help out while the boys deserted the place and found cover where pink and sparkles were well out of sight. The girls decorated princess bookmarks with stickers and glitter, then they colored Princess Bingo cards. After that they dined mini sandwiches and pink or raspberry lemonade served from tea pots into their very own princess cups. After the snack we played Princess Bingo then to presents. lil' K was so excited to open presents followed by mini strawberry bundt cakes with lemon glaze. They played with the new gifts and we read a few stories: Fancy Nancy and Pinkalicious. The princess had a fun time being princesses, but who doesn't.

lil' K chose to go to Wendy's for dinner that night. She and lil' L love that place, even though she could choose anywhere. The next day we had grandparents over...which meant more presents, more cake and ice cream. She got barbies, high school musical stuff, clothes, and more littlest pet shop toys. What a lucky girl! lil' K loved having two parties and getting dressed up.

Here are a few things about my girl:

• She recently changed her favorite color from pink to red.
• She carries everything in her purses.
• She loves to get dressed in skirts that twirl.
• She loves suckers and gum.
• She loves to play with Play-Doh.
• She loves being a big sister
• and playing with lil' L.
• She is kind and loves to cuddle.
• She loves to look at books.
• She loves to laugh.
• She loves to dance and sing.

HaPpy BirThdaY, lil' K! We love you!!
