Look Who's 5!

It seems that just a few months ago Victoria was just a little baby. She's 5. Wow. Where does all of the time go. It reminds me to just keep enjoying her in every way. I love who she is and already who she will become. She is a crack up, and full of life. I love that in her. She's not afraid to experience life. Those baby years are forever gone in our house. No more diapers, sippy cups, potty training...Yay for no more potty training!

Victoria has always been a very energetic baby. Always wanting to be in the middle of it all. She still thinks that the world revolves around her. She thinks that our days should be filled with snow cones and trips to the park so she can play. Oh to be 5. Being 5 means learning to read, write, add and subtract. Learning that your brothers can be more of a friend than an annoyance especially when he can reach those things that you can't. Being 5 means that you really can dress like a princess and wear Cinderella shoes to church. Click, click, click... Being 5 means enjoying everything you do, pushing the shopping cart that is way to heavy for you to push...baking cookies with Mom and Daphne... Wearing a ballerina outfit all day long...wrapping yourself around Daddy's little finger...once again...eeking out another bedtime story...telling Daddy which way to drive to get to the park...and being right...eating chili out of dog bowls...and snuggling up to Mommy every single night in her bed only to be carried off by Daddy to wake up in her own bed. (I guess she could do that one at any age...as long as Daddy can still lift her...that is) Happy Birthday Victoria!
