My Baby is "5"

My darling daughter turned five yesterday, and I am wondering where did the time go. At this rate, she will be 10 in no time, and I will be closer to "50". UGH!!!! She had such a wonderful day. She woke up early to open her presents before Charlie left for school. We wanted to make sure he was included, and we didn't want to wait for evening, because we knew that she would pester us all day to open them. Then, we all drove Charlie to school and listened to 102.7 to hear them announce Abby's birthday.
I made pancakes for the birthday girl, followed by lunch at Red Lobster. Her choice. Not to eat Lobster, but to look at them in their tanks!!! She had her usual mac&cheese. Then Abby and I made and decorated cupcakes to eat later when we sang to her. After we sang and ate cupcakes, we went swimming. Abby had a BLAST!!!! We came home and ate pizza. Then it was time to relax!!! What a wonderful day. Abby will be having a party with her friends after Easter. Daddy has classes this weekend, and Easter is next weekend, so we will celebrate the weekend after Easter. Thanks to our family for all the gifts that they sent Abby. She loves them all. A trip to Target is in store for us soon!!!
