Somehow we try to make the morning of a birthday feel special. Sometimes we run through the streamers, or have breakfast in bed or bed o' balloons.
But Anna is a sleeper. I'm not really sure how late she can sleep because we always have to wake her up to get started with the day.
So we decided to wake her up with a rip-roarin rendition of Happy Birthday.
She was not amused.
Ethan whispered to her, "There are some presents for you to open!"
Everly gave the wrapping paper a good pat, hoping to entice her out.
Laney offered a detailed description of what the present felt like....a little squishy!
And she emerged!
Who can pass up presents before breakfast?
I she received a new dress to wear! One of the few perks of having your birthday on a Sunday.
A box of Marshmallow Mateys and 5 years old is looking pretty grand.
Mark and the kids decorated and Megan brought her a royal birthday crown.
Big sisters are awesome.
Happy 5th, Sweet Anna!
She received a play restaurant set and she was super surprised!
Megan and Laney worked all day to put together a bucket of butterflies and caterpillars and dragonflies made from all their craft supplies. It was so cute.
Big kids are the best.
And she received the super cutest pillow case from Grandma Kathleen. I'm now worried that she'll get a bloody nose and ruin it. ack!
We had a nice day and I'm so excited for the year she has coming. Kindergarten if coming!! At long last!
