Happy 5th Birthday Ellie

Well, on November 3, our little Ellie girl turned 5 years old!! WOW, has time flown! I can't believe how big she is getting! It feels like yesterday, seeing that little positive sign on the pregnancy test and knowing our lives were going to change. What a joy and a blessing she has been!
We started the day with special cereal that Ellie picked out. She gets to pick out any cereal she wants for her birthday. She picked out Lucky Charms. After a delicious breakfast, we went to the Discovery Place with Emma. All the kids seemed to have a lot of fun playing with everything.

They had costumes that the kids could dress up in and Ellie wanted to be a dinosaur.







Then, in the afternoon, Gracie and Piper brought her a surprise. They knew she doesn't like cake, so they made her a birthday cookie. They even put candles in it that she could blow out. Look at how big that cookie was!







Then, after the boys took their naps, Lindsay and I took all the kids for ice cream. Yummmmy. After that, daddy was home and Ellie requested pancakes for her birthday dinner. (it was a fun, sugar filled day)














Then, it was time to open some presents!

Her brothers could not resist helping out.
