Happy Birthday Netta

Netta was second in line to have a birthday. She turned 5 on May 9th. For some reason that I can't remember, we went out to dinner the night before her birthday. She picked Freddy's basically for the fries. She started this new habit of holding things in front of her face when I take her picture. We will see this again later. 

The morning of her birthday I came downstairs to find her crying, because I hadn't decorated the whole house for her birthday. I don't know who she thinks her mom is, but that isn't typically how birthdays go here. She quickly perked up when I told her I would take her picture and put it on facebook. 


She got to celebrate her birthday that day at preschool and brought big lollipops to share with her friends. Here is another picture of her holding something in front of her face. 


Here she is on the playgroup with 2 of her little friends Avery and Ava. They are all modeling their toys. Oh girls. 


That day Sarah also come over and told Netta she would take her somewhere to pick out a present. Netta requested Old Navy and made a beeline right for these Hello Kitty press-on nails. I don't know why they sell them there, but they do and apparently Netta really wanted them. 


That night we celebrated as a family and Netta basically went crazy over every single present, but she really went nuts for the movie Rise of the Guardians. 


I "encouraged" Netta to have just ice cream for her family celebration. I can't handle all the cupcakes this month!


A couple of days later we had her friend party. Netta wanted a rock star party. So the kids played "Just Dance Kids" on the Kinect and I gave everyone glitter tattoos. We also had a pinata that for some reason we have no pictures of. Not quite sure what happened with that, but I promise it was there. 




Netta of course loved all the attention and she is already busy at work planning her parties for the next couple of years.
