The big day.

Scene: 7am in a pink bedroom.

Daylight streams into the room casting a warm glow over the sleeping child. The door opens slowly. Silent feet gently tip toe up to the bed.

Mom singing: Happy Birthday to you...Happy birthday to you....Happy birthday dear...

Child groans while covering head with her comforter: Mooooooommmm STOP! Your waking me up!


...And that was how our day started. But after some errands we stopped at OMSI and the day became all about Blake and having fun.






By the end we were both super exhausted. But she managed to have enough energy to open presents. Thanks to all family members who sent gifts and for those gifts still in transit.

Tomorrow we have her birthday party. She requested a Chuck E. Cheese extravaganza this year. After two years of planning and throwing parties I was more than happy to let someone else cook, entertain, then clean up the mess.

And honestly, wouldn't you subject yourself to Chuck E Cheese madness for this cute face?

  1. I love that you're singing to her, and she told you that your waking her up! How cute is that?

    Thanks for sharing and I do hope there will be a Chuck E. Cheese pic or two! See, she already has great taste! I didn't have a Chuck E. Cheese party until I turned 25! :)
