Nora's Birthday

Nora J turned 5 this year, this was probably the first year she really had a hard time waiting for her birthday. I've lost track of how many times she asked if her birthday was tomorrow.

On the eventful day Abby woke Nora up at 6:00, the earliest they're allowed to be up, to be the first to say, 'Happy Birthday!'.  Nora brought Hello Kitty cupcakes to preschool, the kind with a ring on top, and she received several rousing renditions of Happy Birthday!

After dinner we opened a few presents. Nora's favorite was a large stuffed Elsa doll from Abby. Nora has barely let it out of her sight since, Abby knows her sister.

On Saturday we had Nora's party, she requested a rainbow themed party. There were rainbow necklaces, pin-the-cloud on the rainbow, a musical rainbow walk, rainbow favors, and one awesome rainbow cake.

Nora had an awesome day, best birthday yet she said.
