Happy Birthday, Dear Emily!

Today our baby turned 4. She was so excited and tried her hardest not to wake up her big sister, but just couldn't help herself and gave in to temptation about 1 second after waking me up to ask if it was her birthday yet. Will had to leave for work briefly after she woke up so we were unable to open gifts until he came home for the afternoon. Due to Emily's love of Barbie, we got her the Barbie ship/plane.Daddy took the afternoon off for Emily's birthday. We had a ton of fun.

When Will got home we opened presents, then had lunch at home, and got ready to go. Where did you go, you ask? We all went to the zoo so we could see the new baby elephant. For those of you thinking about going, GO! He is so cute and completely worth the 8-10 minute wait. Will agreed. We then came home and made"pupcakes" as Emily calls them.

Finally, we had pizza for dinner upon Emily's request and her grandparents, Nana, and Doug, Jessica, and Dylan came over. We will go out with Amelia and Audrey on Sunday. Emily was very entertaining. She would open an envelope and announce, " Look Sister, A CARD!" Then she opened many of her favorite things of this world. She got soccer gear, which she modeled for us and ran the circle on our first floor, the Movie Flicka ( another running activity Movie in our house), Quizno's Gift card ( you may think crazy, but my girls love to buy their OWN food), The Hanna Montana guitar, ( Her big girl Tar), and a plasma car. ( Which her sister got 4 days ago and they have been fighting over it ever since. (A fabulous gift for exercise, too)

We had a Supercalifragilistic day and I know Emily did, too!
