Happy 5th Birthday Emily!

Holy Moly! How is Emily already 5?!?!?!?! I'll ask it again, WHERE has the time gone!? My cute little niece Emily who is sassy and smart as always, turned 5 last week, so we celebrated it tonight at my Mom's.

It was my very first attempt at a Barbie cake. It wasn't exactly what I had pictured or wanted, but I was actually pretty happy with it for my first one. ALL Emily requested was a Barbie and a Baby. Her only two wishes, so of course I HAD to at least attempt the cake.

 

The birthday girl and her mom.

 

And....  Present time!!!!!

 

We got her another Barbie

 

Michael putting her "BAAAAAAAAAABY!!!!!!" 's batteries in. I didn't even get a picture of her screaming "My BAAAAAAAABY My BAAAAAABY!!!!!" because we were laughing so hard!

 

I was laughing so hard because I had my phone camera turned around so we could see ourselves. All Matt could say was, "WHAT!? Do I really look that old???? Why am I so OOOOLLLLLLDDDD???" 

 

Wait for it.....

 

Wait for it.....

 

A little help from Cousin Michael....

 

"OOOOOO!!!!! A BABY Stroller!!!!"

Going over the card Cai Lynn made for Emily.

Once she realized the baby was animated, she wasn't too sure about it. (Then I told her that she could turn it off... and she QUICKLY did.)

And let them eat cake!!!!! Emily HAD to put the candles in.

 

 

Blowing out the candles

 

 

Taking out the candles

 

Cutting the cake

Patiently waiting for me to unwrap the Barbie. (Michael took the pictures while she waited)

 

 

Happy to be holding the "all clean" Barbie.

 

And.... of course they had to fly the helicopter..... The challenge was to try and make it fly (with its little remaining juice) from the top of the stairs and gently land on the bottom.

 

Picture time! (I wish I had my camera and not my phone...)

 

Happy 

Birthday Em!!!!
