Happy Birthday to My Baby | Life

Yesterday was my daughter’s 5th birthday!  It really is hard to believe that she is already 5 because it seems like she was just 2.  Time does get away from you when you have a child because things change so quickly, sometimes right before your eyes.  All of sudden she is no longer my baby and now she’s a big girl who we are preparing to go to kindergarten!  This week hasn’t been all that I was hoping though.  Mommy (me) has been sick with an ugly cold and sinus infection that will not go away.  I wanted yesterday to be a bit ‘bigger’ then what it ended up but in the end I do not think she cared.  She was happy and that made me happy!

We started the day with swimming lessons.

Then we took her out for lunch and where do you think she wanted to go?  Panera!  It was funny to us that that was her request.  After that we went to Build A Bear, a place I have never taken her in fear that it would start an obsession.  She at first couldn’t understand why all the toys were flat!  ‘What is wrong with these toys?’ she asked.  After lots of explaining then she got into it and chose a beautiful wolf, put her in a fancy red dress, and called her Sparky!

I was right, she’s obsessed!  Actually the obsession was already there, anytime she gets a new toy it’s a stuffed animal.

We then had a little birthday treat at home and I sang Happy Birthday to her!  These yummy cookies were her birthday snack at preschool.

And to finish she created a masterpiece with her new window markers that Great Aunt Starla gave to her over the weekend.  She loves these!
