Sarah turns 5

I can't believe my baby girl turned 5!
When did she go from this
 to this?


At her 5 year check up, she was 3'6.75" (55%) and 36 pounds (23%)
Sarah is strong willed, detail oriented, slightly ocd...oh and kind of bossy :-)  Her teachers tell me she is a born leader.  She knows over 40 site words that she learned at school, but can write/identify many more. She loves to color and write
I love this idea I found on Pinterest - It's a Birthday Questionnaire.  Here are Sarah's answers this year:

How old are you?  5
What makes you happy? Mommy
What is your favorite animal? Dog
What is your favorite thing to eat? Quesadilla
What is your least favorite think to eat? Lettuce
What is your favorite thing to do? Dance 
What is your TV show? Angelina Ballerina
What are you really good at? Pointing my toes
What is your favorite movie? Fashion Show Barbie
What is your favorite color? Pink and Purple
What is your favorite song? Twinkle Little Star
Who is your best friend? Reagan
What do you and mom do together? Get our nails done
What do you and dad do together? Go to Home Depot
What is your favorite sport? Soccer (really, not sure she's even ever seen soccer!)
Where is your favorite place to go? The pool
What is your favorite book? Ballerina Books
What do you want to be when you grow up? A dancer

This year, Sarah wanted to have a Ballerina birthday party.  She knew what she wanted to wear, we just had to find it. After searching and searching, she was finally satisfied with this:

Kendra's Cakery made the beautiful cake and cookie favors


Sadly, I didn't get many pictures of the party, here are a few
 
 
 
 



Strawberry Picking

It seems like every year we miss strawberry season.  This year, I was determined to take the kids strawberry picking.  We woke up early on Good Friday and went to Atkinson Farms.

 
 
 
 

 
 
 We had so much fun and can't wait until next season!
