Another birthday!

So I'm starting to feel old. Not only do I have 3 kids, but now I have a 5 year old! We had fun with Lexi's birthday this year, and thanks for my mom for helping with everything, we got to do some fun things.
First, we decorated cupcakes to share with Lexi's class the next day.
Then, my mom made Lexi's favorite breakfast, crepes, (while I fed the baby) and the girls got to eat in their bedroom.After school Lexi's friend came to play for a few hours.
Then, after another birthday spaghetti dinner, we celebrated Lexi's birthday with her Nana, Papa, and aunt too. The girls got a combined big gift this year.
A new play kitchen! I don't know who was more excited - them or me!
We served "mud and dirt" cake, with plenty of worms and slugs, with garden shovels.

We're so lucky to have big sister Lexi in our family!

That kitchen is awesome!! I wish I had one like that when I was growing up. And the worms and dirt with shovels, such a great idea. Where do you get the time and energy for all that with a newborn?

I still have my super mom here! Otherwise it would have been a much simpler day.
