Birthdays and First Day of School

Maggie and I just celebrated our birthday's and for a special birthday treat we ordered a 4-layer chocolate fudge cake.  Maggie saw this cake displayed at the store about 4 months ago and has been talking about getting it for our birthday's ever since.  No problem!  It is just as huge and yummy as we hoped!

Birthday buddies!

 Maggie's birthday started off early, since it was the first day of school this year.  Despite the early start, she still got to experience presents and a special birthday breakfast.


Even Penelope loved the wrapping paper!

Hooray!  Maggie got Josefina, an American Girl Doll from 1824.

Maggie requested chocolate chip pancakes and sausage for breakfast.

She was excited!

After presents and breakfast, it was time to get ready for the first day of school.  Kate was excited to get dressed up in her new school outfit and head to 3rd grade.

Maggie picked out a special, new outfit as well.  She is all ready for 1st grade!

At school, the amazing Ms. Huser surprised Maggie with a special birthday crown and cape.

Maggie loved finding her very first desk! 

At the end of the school day, Will and I stopped by Maggie's class to bring birthday brownies.  The class sang Happy Birthday to Maggie before enjoying their treats. 

And now, a whole new school year begins!  How did my kids grow so fast?  Slow down , please!!!
