My sweet niece turns 5

Our family had lunch at my Step-dad and Mom's house on Sunday to celebrate my niece's 5th birthday! How are these kids growing up so fast?? I can't believe she will be going to kindergarten in the fall!

 

I love when we get a picture of all 6 cousins together! Yep, there are only 6 kids in the picture even though my niece's baby doll, "Chubber cheeks", almost looks like a real baby!

 

 All of the kids have been playing so well together lately. :)

  

My niece was so sweet to let our baby play with "Chubber cheeks". She would hold her, then throw her down, then kiss her. I'm not sure she knew what to think because it looks so life like!  I had never seen these baby dolls before, but this is the same kind of doll as our son has in his classroom that she played with on Thursday.

  

Another of all the cousins. I make a photo calendar for my Step-dad and Mom and for my Dad each year and I normally have 1,000's of pictures of our kids, my sister has maybe 200 of hers, and my brother has about 50 of his son. I told them that they need to take more pictures this year and my sister is off to a good start! I was proud of her for bringing her camera.  :)

  

 My niece apparently needs a lot of help opening her presents.

  

 I'm not sure why she was tickling her brother's chin as he read her cards to her. ;)

  

She loved the Melissa and Doug princess dress we got her. I think she told me she was turning me in to a frog though. We need to talk about that!


Robert and his son. He is the happiest, sweetest little boy. He fractured his arm falling out of bed at his Mom's house and when you ask him what happened he says his bed bucked him off. Poor guy!


 A sweet cousin moment.  Although my nephew looks like he's up to no good! ;)

Happy 5th birthday to my princess niece.  We are glad we were able to celebrate your birthday with you!  We love you so much!!
