Gwen Turns 5!

My Gwenny turned 5!  I can hardly believe she's so old! For this birthday, she wanted to go see Frozen so I took her and Lincoln.  Then we had a family party at home with homemade pizza and a strawberry cake.
Some fun facts about 5-year-old Gwen:

•     She is growing accustomed to having 3 brothers and will often lead them in some sort of creative game/pretend play that she's come up with.  
• She is an incredible reader!  She pretty much has learned along side Lincoln and I would say she's at about a 2nd grade reading level now. Right now she's reading a Junie B. Jones chapter book.   
• She still needs much less sleep than her brothers.  She consistently goes to bed later than them (she stays up reading), and wakes up before them.  
• She loves being a girl!  She loves dressing up, painting her nails, having "tea parties", Barbies, babies, etc.... If it's a stereotypical girl thing- she likes it.  
• She is my little buddy now.  I recently took her to my sister's Bridal shower and she was the perfect accomplice.  
• She's excited to go to kindergarten next year, but I will sure miss her!
