Happy happy birthday!

Vada turned 5 today (assuming I get this to post before midnight on Tuesday)! She wanted to celebrate by going to a west coast buffet chain restaurant called Sweet Tomatoes. I’m pretty sure she chooses it based on the ice cream.

For her present we decided to take her to a giant Toys’R’Us store and let her pick something out. We don’t really shop much at retail stores so this could have turned out really bad on a school night after ice cream. But it didn’t! She had a blast running all over the store and looking at everything. After nearly an hour we started to get her to narrow down her options… Stuffed animal, princess costume, jewelry kit, Legos, a bouncy house or trampoline, and a kid size car (not happening). She actually asked for our help in choosing so we weeded out the bouncy house, trampoline, and car (whew).

 

In the end she chose the Repunzal dress and long wig. Honestly we could not have picked out something better for her.
