The celebration of Sid's day began with some gifts from Mom, Dad and Nan Nan.
Dad and I bought Sid a new playmobile zoo set, a favorite book and contributed to the skis from Grandpa Ho-Ho, Granny, Grand-Mama and Grandpa Bill. Nan Nan sent a wonderful package with all kinds of goodies that Sid just delighted in. A few favorites were the ballet barbie and the ballerina twin bed set. Sid insisted on having her bed all made up and then crawled in and asked for breakfast in bed.
Anything to make the day special for our birthday girl!
Later that morning we met our friends at playgroup and the kids played from 10:3o until 2:00. We were so lucky to have beautiful weather so we could enjoy the outdoors! Sid's friend Isabella gave her a talking, moving, singing Macaw that was a real hit. She has since been everywhere with us and draws tons of attention as she talks to strangers (the bird that is) and winks at people!
More celebrations later with just mom and dad. Sid picked ham and scalloped potatoes with boiled cabbage for her birthday dinner and chose a chocolate Oreo cheesecake for her b-day cake. This girl has a good sense of D-Licious!!!
Later on Sid tried on her skis but since we are still snow-free (yippppeeee) I laid out a quilt for her to try them on.
Then Dad and Sid finished off the evening singing together. Wow so special!
On Saturday Grand-mama and Ann, Dirk and the cousins met us at a really nice cafe and we had dessert and snacks together. It was so fun being out everyone and Sid was just so thrilled to see her cousins. At least once a day she asks "When are we going to see the cousins again??!!"
And then the birthday party yesterday!
I will let the pictures speak for themselves!

Thanks to all our friends and family that helped make Sid's fifth so special! We love you and appreciate having you in our lives.
