Ellie turns 5!

I can't believe Ellie turned 5. She got to celebrate her entire birthday weekend. Saturday I let her invite a couple of friends to go see Tangled. It was fun having little girls get excited over the movie while eating popcorn. On Sunday her actual birthday, Bill was working at the fire station, so we got to celebrate her birthday there with everyone else that had a birthday in March. We decided to wait for her to open her main presents until the family party. People kept asking her how old she was and she kept saying she was 4. I kept telling her she turned 5. I was really confused about why she didn't want to turn 5. Finally, she said, "I'm not 5 until I have my party." Monday, we finally had our family party and according to Ellie, she could officially say she was 5. Phew...Party, Party, Party! Happy Birthday Ellie!

Ellie's friends at the fire station got her a couple of presents for her birthday. So fun!

Making a wish.

An adorable hat her Aunt Sonja crocheted her.

G&G Mayfield sent her a Wii game and some roller skates.

Ellie is such a beautiful girl. She loves to sing and dance. Ellie loves clothes and shoes and changes several times a day. She likes singing along with the radio. She has become my little helper, we get to spend a lot of time together especially when her older brother & sister are at school. Her favorite color is purple. Ellie is stubborn and strong willed. Ellie hates bedtime and the cold. She loves to draw and play with Thomas the Train. (I found a pink train set for her birthday) She likes watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. This is just a glimpse into Ellie. Ellie is such a joy to have in our family. We love you Ellie!
