Happy 5th Birthday, Abigail!

It's hard to believe, but our 1st "baby" turned 5 yesterday!!!  How fast these 5 years have gone by!!!

 

As always, Abigail's birthday falls right in the middle of the Christmas season.  We try our best to make it as special as we can for her!

 

Last Wednesday, Abigail celebrated her birthday at school.  She wanted to do it before she turned 5...not after she was already 5!  :)

 

Bringing her bday treat to school

Abigail filled out her birthday form by sounding out her words!  Her favorite food is chicken nuggets with ranch.  Her favorite colors are purple and pink.  Her favorite toy to play with is My Little Pony.  When she goes outside, she likes to play with her soccer ball.  Her favorite book is Madeline.  She is really good at tap dancing.

Celebrating at school

 

On Friday night, we had our annual Kiddie Festivus with our friends.  Auntie Nay Nay had a cake and present for her.

 

 

 

Saturday was her actual birthday.  We started the day off with birthday donuts.  She was very excited to celebrate her birthday with her family.

Sparkle boots!!!  She got tons of great gifts including lots of cute dresses, skirts, and leggings, clothes for her American girl, a new coat that matches her American Girl coat, new games including a Princess one that the girls love, and an MP3 player and docking station.  Oh, and a new guitar which was the big hit!

Happy Birthday to the big sister!!!!
