Elijah turns 5!

On the one hand I can't believe my baby is five. On the other hand I can't believe will have three high school graduates and he hasn't even started kindergarten. It sort of feels like it will go on forever. These are the cupcakes I made. No I didn't let him pick out what kind. I had been craving these lemon cupcakes for a long time and needed a reason to make them. He didn't complain. And they were soooooo good. At this age Elijah is so much fun. Yes there are moments when he has some pretty dramatic tantrums still, but really they are very entertaining. He is usually really positive and happy. And he is always good for a laugh. He just seems to love life.

Yep and a new Spiderman bike too!

Sadie Hawkins Dance

Bridget went to the Sadie Hawkins dance with a fun group of friends.

She makes a cute hillbilly.

Cheer Camp

The Cheerleaders put on a cheer camp for the little girls. I asked Miss Shy girl Lydia if she wanted to go. I expected her to say no since she didn't seem to enjoy it last year. But she really wanted to do it. Well she still didn't like it so much this year. She just clung to Bridget the whole time. Then when it came time to perform at the Basketball game she just stood there. But in one of the cheers they drop to the ground and it took her a half a second to realize she was the only one standing. She quickly dropped to the ground too. So we can be pretty sure we will not have another cheerleader on our hands. Unfortunately the only pictures I could get were from the back. That really annoyed look on Lydia's face was there pretty much the whole time.
