Squeals of Joy

I woke up to some of the happiest little squeals of excitement because today is the day, it is finally here... Bella is 5!  The whole they grow up in the blink of an eye thing is making a bit more sense to me.  I have a 5 year old, really?!  She spent the first 10 minutes of her morning running around the whole house saying, "Oh yeah, it's my birthday!  Good bye 4, and hello 5!  I'm 5, I'm finally 5!"  Excited much <3

So we will be getting dressed soon, and headed to Build-a-Bear, one of her most favorite places on the planet, to pick out some outfits for all her shmanimals, and possibly get talked into another animal... She has already started her spiel.  Later she has ballet and tap, and we are going to take some cookies to share with all her friends after class.

In between all the fun, I will be cleaning, organizing, setting up, and freaking out!  I need to get my anxiety under control because everything is going to be great and awesome.  Plus I will have plenty of help because La, Liz, Diane, Frank, Adrienne, Jen Hamilton and of course Vince will be there.  Oh, and Jen Hamilton took care of ordering/picking up/paying for/delivery of the cake.  How sweet is that?!

All right, time for that second cup of coffee, and then it will be time to get dressed.  Looks like it's going to be a great day....
