Fabulously 5!

Yep, she's FIVE, and loving it!  Seriously, 5!  I'm done with this growing thing.

 


 

She chose a PORCUPINE theme for her birthday.  Yep, you read that right Porcupine.

It all came about here in OK where two porcupines were shot, and then a lesson was provided by Granddad.

WAIT, You mean your 5 year old girl didn't ask for a porcupine birthday after examining a dead porcupine.  Something is not right in your life.  :)

The best was the nice lady in the store trying to help and asking Claire her theme or what she was looking for.  I'm sure awaiting the magic words "Frozen" imagine her surprise. :)

CONTRARY TO WHAT YOU MIGHT THINK, THERE ARE NOT A LOT OF PORCUPINE BIRTHDAY IDEAS ON PINTEREST!  :)
This momma had to get creative!
See her porcupine balloons?


She took porcupine cupcakes to preschool.
We cut and used tootsie rolls for their quills!

 

 

The sweetest thing, Livie worked and saved money to purchase Claire a stuffed porcupine.

Claire loves her!!

 

For her celebration, we took a friend and went to Chuck E Cheese.

Yes, it's the 3rd time!  I've decided not to fight it.   Well, after Jed said, "Why are you fighting this?"  :)  So, don't be hatin' on Chuck E Cheese people!

 

 

She had a great time!

Happy Birthday, Claire Bear!

You are a terrific Little Sister.  You girls LOVE to have "slumber parties" both downstairs and in Livie's room.  (which makes no sense bc Livie has a twin bed and Claire has a double)

You play together for Hours on End and truly are Best Friends!

You are also the Best Big Sister and Helper I could ask for.  I couldn't raise Cade without you.  You are ALWAYS eager and willing to help, and he ADORES you!

 

Furthermore, you are hilarious!!  You have the greatest comedic timing and one liners.

You are more caring than we ever could have imagined.  You love accessorizing your bed with animals that are then accessorized with scarves, earrings, necklaces, glasses and books!  It takes forever, and you refuse to sleep in your bed bc you can't mess them up!  (even though you change them everyday) So, you sleep at the end of your bed in the wrong direction with a blanket over you! :)  You love to pretend with mom, sometimes you're a mom, a teenager, and sometimes a baby. 

 

We LOVE your style, imagination, and YOU! 

YOU ARE TRULY A

FABULOUS FIVE YEAR OLD!
