London's Birthday Bonanza!

Here is the Birthday Girl. Notice the look of pride and self-confidence in our fiesty four-yr-old.
Maybe you'd like a closer look. Notice the ribbon? It may show up in some other shots. Keep an eye out for it.
Someone got a bike! A big girl bike. A Dora big girl bike!
Look at those cute little legs peddle. Go, Sweet Pea, go!
The sun on her face. The wind in her hair. THIS is living!
*sniff* She may as well be in a car headed off to college! *sob*

Birthday party #1 - just the family.
London wanted to eat the clown. She didn't realize he was mostly plastic.
She carefully picked away all the frosting and left the cake behind. Ahh...that's my girl!
That's okay. Kirby likes cake. Kirby likes everything!
London almost missed out on her cake as she first refused to eat dinner. After a bit of conversation with Mom in her room, she saw the light and ate everything on her plate. The party continued after that.

Birthday Party #2 - a few friends joined in the fun.
Make a wish, Sweet Pea. Wish that Mommy won't put herself through the making of another character cake next year, would ya?
I didn't do too bad of a job, if I say so myself. Besides, it's how it tastes that matters. However, this cake tasted like fish. We still don't understand why.
Emily, Amy and Elle joined in the fun on the second night. I refuse to do a big party every year but NEXT year will be an all-out bash! Reserve your seats and book your flights, folks. You don't want to miss it when London turns FIVE!

Thanks for the instructions. I swear the 'comment button' wasn't there when I was trying to figure it out earlier. To add insult to injury....I knew I had done it before. Ah well.

This blog rocks (and so do you and the kids).
