I am still in shock as I write this. Our baby is 5 years old, or as she puts it, "One Whole Hand"! We can't believe it. Where did the time go? Her birthday is 9/20 so Aunt Lisa came over with a cake and we had a small celebration. We gave Lizzie her gifts: A Zaboo stuff animal (from Zaboomafoo) and a really cute little interactive kitten that purrs and coos when you feed it. As you can see from the pictures, she is very motherly towards it!
We had Lizzie's "Official Birthday Party" on October 10 at a place called "The Little Red Schoolhouse". It is a beautiful little hall. This year Lizzie wanted Princess Belle to come to her party and we didn't want to have two parties again, one for family and one for her friends. We were supposed to have three boys at the party, but two couldn't come, the rest were all girls. Princess Belle was quite the hit of the party. She sang, danced and did face painting. She was really wonderful. The kids all had a great time.
