Abbey Turned Five

I can hardly believe that my first born daughter is five.  It seems like such a turning point from small child to well, I'm, a child.  Her Valentine's Day pajama party picnic was moved to her birthday so here she is all ready to go. We brought pink frosted cupcakes for her class and she just loved that they were her favorite color.  

That evening, we met Daddy at the toy store for their birthday gift trip.  She picked out a Strawberry Shortcake, a Hello Kitty, a Princess Anna and two little Lego sets.  Then she wanted to go to Cowboy dinner..her favorite place aka Texas Roadhouse.   She loved it.   Her favorite color is pink, her favorite shape is oval and her favorite Princess is Anna.  She wants to be an Elf on the Shelf when she grows up.  So she can fly around.  

They put birthday people on the saddle and have everyone say Yee Haw !  She loved that. 

She ordered macaroni and cheese and fries. Always.  

Adam.  He picked out a Marvel Avengers Lego set which he had been planning forever. He came the next day and spent four hours straight putting it together.  I was impressed. 

Ellie also sucks down the Kraft.  She picked out Scooby figurines which she is now obsessed with. It was a nice day, but we were out late and kid weren't in bed until ten!  I remember the day Abbey was born and it seems like forever ago and it seems like yesterday.  She is sweet and stubborn, beautiful and caring.  String willed and independent, she still loves being with mommy.  And I'll soak THAT up while it lasts!!
