She's 5 And Ready To Jive

This morning, my dear Laney Isabelle turned 5!

This morning at exactly 7:18AM.

Normally, she is up and ready to go,

but I guess we all get a PASS to sleep in when it's our birthdays.

And what did my sweet tooth order for her special birthday breakfast?

WHITE POWDERED DONUTS!

So healthy...

so yummy.

Little brother ate them right up too!

The treat bags were a hit at school...

okay, the chocolate was a hit...

the carrots...not so much.

Laney received a hat and her classmates sang to her.

I took the birthday girl and Henry to the library this afternoon.

New books and movies!

And a lunch trip to McDonald's is always a treat!

This evening, my 5 year old requested a taco dinner.

After dinner...PRESENTS!
*****

Beauty and the Beast Barbie! She sings too! And what is Belle without her Beast? Yippee!

And oh yes, the DVD had to jump in there.

While little sister opened, big sister inspected the goods.

And someone now has a major crush on Belle!

Hooray for 5!!!!!

And the last gift came from Daddy.

Oh yes, we will be rocking the house with the new karaoke machine!
Each girl got to pick out her song....

I cannot wait until I'm alone in the home....watch out American Idol contestants!

Happy 5th Birthday Laney!

To one of my very favorite people in the whole wide world.

I love you so!
