Lea turned 5 today. My first born. It's so hard to believe that she is 5 and will be in kindergarten in a week and a half. I woke her up this morning and presented her with a new outfit (all purple of course), a birthday tiara, birthday girl sash, and button that says 'birthday princess'. Again, all purple :) She had gotten quite a cash-haul during the week and wanted to go to Target. So we went yesterday. She got a Hello Kitty purse, whimzy animal, and the wedding Barbie set (barbie, ken, skipper, kelly).
Today we went bowling with MIL, FIL, and two gals from their church that sit for my kids from time to time. We all had a blast! Believe it or not, my 2 year old and 5 year old BOTH beat me in bowling. None of us broke 100 (except husband), but we had so much fun and that is really all that matters.
Afterwards, just the four of us went to Applebee's for her birthday lunch. It was really nice. In addition to the gifts she bought with her birthday money, she got a 3 pack of Hello Kitty socks, 3 barbie dresses, a minivan that goes with a dollhouse she has, an outfit for school, a really cute lunch bag for school, and a princess dress.
We are going to my parents this evening to celebrate, swim, and spend the night. Tomorrow at the butt-crack of dawn we are getting up to head to the Illinois Railway Museum to do the Day Out With Thomas with my brother and his kids. I'm just hoping the rain holds off. It's looking pretty ominous out there.
