Let's start at 3:45 am. I heard the famous "mom!" At that time of day--uh morning, you jump and run. She had peed her bed (she is doing so good at wearing panties at night but at least once a week still has an accident) By the time I got in there, she had already changed; I just had to change her bed. While I was changing her bed, I must have mumbled something about Daddy because next thing I knew she was in talking to Daddy. She took her woobie and asked him if it had gotten wet. After he said no, she said "OK. I need to get back to my bed now so my birthday can get here." Because of her early morning issue, I assumed she would sleep later. Nope. 8am she comes in and proclaims "Here's the birthday girl!"
For breakfast she picked to have Dunkin Donuts. So she and Daddy went and got donuts (just like C and I go get them for his birthday).
Before we actually got to eat, K got to open presents. Priorities ya know. She got a new puzzle (that girl loves her puzzles), a color wonder book/markers, Hello Kitty play dough (for school), some new pencils (cuz we don't have enough ya know), some barrettes, Hello Kitty band aids, Cooking Mama for the Wii, some Crayola colored pencils with a pencil sharpener (which she has named as her favorite present), some stickers, and $30.
Since Daddy took the day off, he got to go to her tumbling class. I think that was one of her favorite things of the whole day. (I have a whole post, with video, of her tumbling class coming up. You will just have to wait until then)
After tumbling we went to Wal Mart. I did grocery shopping (without kids!) and Daddy took the kids to the toy aisles and let K spend her money. But she cried cuz she couldn't get EVERYTHING she wanted. Oh the heartbreak. She ended up with 4 pairs of Princess dress up shoes, a Princess microphone, 2 new puzzles, and a doggie (that was technically C's present to her).
After Wal Mart we went to lunch. K had picked 5 Guys Burgers--not because she likes their food (every time we go I take a lunchable for her). She likes the peanuts that they have--all you can eat while you wait for your food. That's all she wanted.
After lunch, we went home to unpack groceries, get birthday phone calls, and try on/play with all the new stuff. It was a nice lazy kind of afternoon. For dinner that night we went to Olive Garden. K's pick there was the tomatoes and croutons off the salad, some breadstick, and half of her spaghetti.
Side note: Then we ran to Target to get C some new dress shoes. Turns out he was wearing 2 sizes too small. No wonder he complained every Sunday morning. Poor guy.
Then home for birthday cookie and "make sure you sing to me Mommy."
