Katelyn's Day

It was her birthday. Every year my daughters get to spend their birthday with Mommy doing ANYTHING they want to do. Ashley went to the zoo with mommy...this year Katelyn started the day with sprinkle pancakes at Perkins.

She just ate them...and had to take a color break. Then it was off to the Mall of America for some rides.

Katelyn had a great time riding the rides. Why is Kelly not riding with her you ask? Well, they don't let pregnant women on the rides. That's right....we are expecting our third. The due date is April 12th. Sort of. The due date is a few days later, but the doctor performing the C-section is on vacation, so we are scheduled for the 12th. Kinda neat, because Kelly's grandma's birthday is on the 12th. Place your bets, but I am pretty sure it is a girl. Please feel free to submit your name choices.

After the rides, Katelyn had to take another coloring break.

She had a great time coloring the pig at the mall. She knows that pigs are mom's favorite animal.

Then, they ended the day with ice cream;

Katelyn had an AWESOME time. Thanks mommy for taking a day off to make your five year old so happy. When they got home, Katelyn got to open her birthday present, and immediately she went to work. She is five....and already I get to deal with;

So our third girl will have a good teacher when it comes to applying makeup as Katelyn is apparently an expert at five.

Katelyn also won a stuffed animal when playing that crane video game. You know, that one where you typically have to put in 73 dollars before you get the crane to actually pick up a stuffed animal my kid won on her first try.

Because when I asked her how she won the stuffed animal, my daughter shrugged her shoulders and said "huh....natural talent.."....I love my girls.
