Finally Five!

     Kenya has been asking and asking "when is it gonna be my birthday?" for months and months.  She has watched almost every friend turn five and would almost get upset that she was not five and that their birthday was before hers.  A couple days after her birthday she asked me "when is my birthday again?"  I said "May 25th."  She said "not again!"  Like she thought it changed every year, it cracked me up.  She does not like being the youngest, sorry sweetie!  I tried to explain to her that eventually she would like being the youngest, like when all her friends turn 30 and she's still 29. :)

     She had a family party this year but I let her pick a few friends to take to "Get Air" the trampoline park.  It was suppose to be a couple but it's hard to narrow it down so it turned into four.  We drove out the Get Air to find that it didn't open until 2:00, it was 1:00.  Kenya was a little disappointed but quickly got over it when everyone seemed just as excited to go to Boondocks instead.  

Love this picture!  Brighton, Kenya, Leila, Kiley, Greta, Brooklyn.

When I asked her a couple weeks back what kind of cake she wanted said a unicorn cake with a rainbow and drew me a picture.  She was pretty excited about the outcome.  I was excited that it was a less involved cake and pretty simple.

The three stooges Leila, Scarlett, and Emerson

She got a new scooter!

She loves getting cards...

     I love this sweet girl so much.  She has always been our little snuggler, we love it.  She comes into our room some mornings and sneaks right into the bed cuddling right up.  It's hard to not let her stay.  She is my helper, she loves helping me cook and still says "skir" for "stir".  She is a good big sister to Leila, and loves to take care of her, even if Leila doesn't always love it.  She is reading pretty well, she wants to memorize all the words instead of sound them all out.  I think that's more how I learned to read, I don't remember sounding words out much, she likes doing flash cards more than reading books but she is so excited for kindergarten and to learn spanish.  I am sad she's going to kindergarten.  It came so fast!  I love listening to her sing and memorizes words to songs really quick.  She's also good at making up her own words and still plays so well by herself.  Kenya, you light up our lives with your smile, personality, and your adorable little face.  We love you!
