Makenzie Turns 5!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no idea how it happened so fast, but my little baby girl turned FIVE!!!

She wokeup and opened a few presents before Daddy had to leave for work.


Then she decided she wanted to go to the Hands-On Children's Museum in Greenville.  It was a nasty rainy day, so it was good to be out of the house and yet indoors.  It was PJ Day at the museum, so we dressed up in our PJ's (all the staff was in their PJ's too, but we were the only visiters that got the memo!!!)

They had a craft called snow art.  You mix shaving cream with glue and food coloring.  It sticks to the paper, dries, and yet remains fluffy.  It's super cool!


Makenzie built a neat little building, mostly by herself.  She wanted a picture next to her masterpiece.


We worked together and built an arch.  Then all 3 kids actually let me get a picture before they knocked the arch down!


Makenzie climbed to the very top of the rock wall several times...all by herself!


Isaiah is playing with the super cute boy in the mirror.  He would make a bunch of different sounds and faces.  Move side to side.  Touch the mirror.  It was really funny to watch.


Yup.  He's standing all by himself!!!  He has to work really hard to get to standing, but once he's there he can tolerate it for almost 30 seconds to 1 minute or more!  My little man is growing up too!


We came home.  Ate dinner.  And opened the rest of the presents.  After Makenzie opened a present that ended up being just a boring package of construction paper, she said "I'm so disappointed."  She was so disappointed that she let Hailey open the other present (which Makenzie knew was just more disappointig paper).  Then she opened 10 bottles of paint and got really excited.  So they ended the day painting.  Makenzie is starting to paint very detailed and realistic pictures.  It is amazing how much she's growing up!!!
