Olivia's a whole handful old.....Five!



There is nothing like a monumental birthday of your oldest child to make you stand up and take notice. Olivia turned 5 on Thursday, September 18th. The time leading up to this birthday was fabulous. She was so excited and very proud that she was actually turning 5. So excited, that she tore pictures (neatly) of animal sets out of the Toys R Us catalog and taped to the back of her door. She said she "likes to wake up to them". Well, you guessed it, she recieved so many beautiful animal toys, books, minature animals for her birthday and they are all loved. With those books come.... reading! I am so excited that she is finally showing promise in this area. I love to read and I, of course, want my kids to love it as much as I do.

Ariel came to visit and entertained us for Olivia's party. The girls were amazed with Ariel and the boys were in love! You can't beat a beautiful day with friends and family to celebrate your little girl turning five!
