Lydia had about the worst birthday ever! She came home from kindergarten not feeling like eating lunch. Hazel had been throwing up on and off for three days at that point and I thought, Oh please don't let this happen on her birthday. But, it did! She started a few hours before dinner, it was suppose to be Fettuccine, her favorite, but we had to post pone that and her cake for about a week because then David and I were sick with it for about five days after that. She still wanted to open her presents and I couldn't deny her that at least, so in between throwing up, she opened presents and amazingly showed some enthusiasm for what she got. It was so pitiful I had to take a picture.
So finally a week later, I was well enough to make her cake and her favorite dinner. She was so patient in the meantime and so happy when the day finally came. Sadly those were the only pictures I got since I wasn't exactly feeling myself either. But, she got a Nintendo DS, some games to go with it, a Barbie guitar, some books, and a Ladybug Land, where she gets to watch ladybugs grow from pupae to adults. She's just loving that!
A few weeks ago Hazel came to me saying "Look, Mommy, pitty" I was surprised to see she had painted her own fingernails, and face! She had gotten a hold of some of Lydia's play fingernail polish and luckily that stuff is pretty washable. But, amazingly she didn't get it on anything else!
Lydia had a Halloween program at school and sang some really cute songs. This is her standing next to the pumpkin her table carved the day before. They all were dressed in their costumes for the program too. Lydia is wearing the fairy costume Mom made for her. Sooo cute!
And Hazel just too cute to pass up!
