Amelia's Birthday

Amelia is 5! And boy did we celebrate.

Dave's parents were here the 7th to the 11th, so we decided to celebrate early, On Sunday the 8th, while they were still here.

Amelia picked all the meals for the day. Breakfast: Cocoa Puffs and Berry Yogurt. Lunch: Steak, Baked Potatoes, and Cucumbers with salt and Lime. Dinner: Homemade Pizza. (Dinner got replaced with sandwiches on account of the fact I was too tired to make homemade pizza and noone was very hungry after such a big lunch).

Amelia opened oodles of presents. Very quickly. Hardly stopped to look at them. But has since made up for it by playing with them nonstop.

Amelia wanted a puppy cake. This is the best I could do in Mexico.

Today, her official day, we brought a cake for all the kids at school and she got to wear a dress instead of her uniform.

Tonight, we finally did her SpongeBob pinata.

I'm so glad she's 5. She's growing up so fast and she is such a fun and funny part of our family.

My Poppy turned 5 on Feb 13! She had Quesadillas for dinner. I'm sure all the grandma and grandpas were ever-so-thrilled with the fixins.

I love this age it makes me happy. Life is just starting to come together for them!
