We started the morning out with a birthday to celebrate! Keziah turned 5 today! I let her pick what she wanted to eat for her birthday breakfast and she picked donuts...I should have known!! I made homemade donuts and they were delicious! We let her open her gift from us because the rest of the day we knew we would be gone to Brian's parents' house! We got her something little to open today but she will get her actual gift at her birthday party in a couple weeks. We bought her a drawing board that has dry erase markers and dry erase crayons and a bunch of stencils. She really liked it and kept busy with it most of the morning. After we got dressed we headed over to Riley and Kathy's house where Mat and Steph were there with Brady and Henry! Another great day of celebrating being thankful for so much!
UPDATE: Keziah had her 5 year well child visit on January 8th. She weighed in at 42 lbs. (50th%) and was 44.75" tall (90th%). She had to get three shots and let me tell you, she has let us know about it!
We got to hang out reading books, jumping on the bean bags, baking sugar cookies and decorating them with LOTS of sprinkles and celebrating all three girls' birthdays since Grandma and Grandpa Uglum and Mat and Steph can't make it to their birthday party.
Practicing letters with Grandma, me and my FIVE year old, isn't she a beaut?, Eden with her new toy from Mat and Steph, lots of reading books and last is Kez and Brady helping make pumpkin pie (the other kids were napping!).
The girls had a great time opening their gifts. Keziah got a new nightgown along with some coloring/crafty things. Adah got some books and stampers, Eden was very happy with her chunky puzzle!
It's time to decorate the cookies. Steph and I frosted them and each of the kids got their own tray and sprinkles...the cookies were...let's just say...colorful and sugary!
Time to sing happy birthday to my three birthday girls. Even though Eden isn't one for almost a month we still let her have a taste of the cookies! We lined the kids up and had them hold up their fingers for how old they are. For only four more days (since Adah's b-day is the 27th) we have a 5, 4, 3 and 2 year old!
The kids didn't want to put their fingers down so even as we added Austin and Eden they continued with their age. Adah was kind enough to put up two fingers for herself and one for Eden (even though she isn't one yet!). We have a pretty awesome group here! And Austin is such a trooper with all these little ones around! Don't let the enthusiastic face fool you...he really does have a good time with these guys!
