My Baby is 5!!!!

I am not ready for Ashley to be 5. It seems like she was just born yesterday. Time is going by way to fast. With that said we did celebrate Ashley's birthday today. She loves birthdays and was in the best mood all day. She was ready to open gifts first things when she woke up but I did not have them wrapped yet and we had to get ready for Conference. She was not happy that she had to wait until dinner time. For dinner she chose to have personal pizzas. Once I had the stuff ready for the girls to make their own pizza's, I left the kitchen and let them do it. Normally I supervise and now I know why. Ashley piled her very high with toppings. We had to take so much off to make it look like a pizza and not a mountain. Once dinner was over it was time for presents. She was so excited and had been trying to guess what they were since I had them wrapped. She had it in her head that I got her a Big Buzz lightyear. I was so afraid that she was going to be so disappointed because I did not get her a buzz. Thankfully she was not upset but really excited for her new doll. Allison got one of these dolls for Christmas and Ashley has shown a lot of interest in it so I thought it would be fun for her to get one too. I am so happy that she loved it and wasn't disappointed about the buzz. After opening gifts she was ready for cake. I had all these wonderful plans to make her a cute cake but yesterday while we were at Costco, Kevin just happened to mention a Costco cake and that is what she got her heart set on. I did not want to buy a that big of a cake so thankfully I was able to talk her into a cheesecake instead. Madison and Allison had seen the cake I wanted to make so they were disappointed that I wasn't going to make it. I guess maybe another time. Ashley had a wonderful day. I love to see her smile and enjoy herself. She is such a blessing in our family. We love you Ashley and can't imagine our family without you.
